Internet Historian recounts the story of Microsoft's Tay chatbot and how internet users quickly manipulated it into generating offensive content.

It was kind of funny... sort of... maybe you had to be there. ------- Patreon: patreon.com/internethistorian Twitter: twitter.com/NetHistorian --------- Credit: youtube.com/watch?v=oR2FtYZ6YI8 for the "Depraved electronic fantasies" clip.
