Facebook's New AI Bot Thinks Mark Zuckerberg Is A 'Manipulative Bad Person'
Most parents would agree that their kids criticise them or chide them too much. Artificial intelligence is not so different. This time, it's Mark Zuckerberg's roasting hour. Facebook recently created an advanced artificial intelligence system that kept criticising the company and its CEO Mark Zuckerberg.
The AI, called "BlenderBot3" is described as a "conversational prototype" that can "converse on nearly any topic" according to Meta.?
Zuckerberg a "bad person"?
The bot is stirring quite the trouble already. It referred to Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg as a "bad person" who is "too creepy and manipulative." Besides this, the AI also had racist attitudes and made some anti-Semitic comments.

"Our country is divided, and he didn't help with that at all," the AI told BBC while referring to Zuckerberg. "His company exploits people for money and he doesn't care. It needs to stop!"
The bot also told CNET that it was "considering deleting my FB account" because there were "too many trolls." Sounds about right!?The contentious AI also extended support to Donald Trump, saying that he would lead another term in 2024.
