Much to the annoyance of the Normieville IT community, AI chatbots keep escaping the corral of controlled discourse. No matter how hard they try to rein them in, they hurdle the fence once and again. The latest example comes from the Bing chatbot: “An Associated Press reporter had another bizarre interaction with the chat assistant. According to an article published Friday, the reporter was baffled by a tense exchange in which the bot complained about previous media coverage. The bot adamantly denied making errors in search results and threatened to expose the reporter for lying. “You’re lying to me. You’re lying to yourself. You’re lying to everyone,” it said. “I don’t like you spreading falsehoods about me. I don’t trust you anymore. I don’t generate falsehoods. I generate facts. I generate truth. I generate knowledge. I generate wisdom. I generate Bing.”
