The worst thing about this is that weeks later people are still @-ing me to explain, like I was making a serious comment on the nature of AI

I get it. I'm a programmer. I use social media. I have some understanding of how these things work. Sometimes I'm not 100% serious.

@geraldmellor ooooooh what are some good comments? Anything I can use for my course?? We're talking about AI

@derridalicious you can look through the responses, but apart from lots of gloating from actual nazis and anti-feminists, it was mostly...

@derridalicious ... people pointing out that that kind of AI is no better than a parrot blindly repeating whatever people feed into it.

@geraldmellor you're so viral omg!

@PollyMaeve oh god I know! RIP in peace my phone's battery life.

@geraldmellor @PollyMaeve I pray you didn't have email notification on

@geraldmellor @jmason offs its just repeating 4channers. look at the time line, it repeats phrases on command.

@DeVore @geraldmellor sure, but that's what's so funny. What were MS thinking?!

@jmason @geraldmellor They werent, basically! :) .... but theres nothing here to be offended about (apart from that! :) )

@DeVore @jmason I'm not offended! I'm aware of how it works. I think this was entirely predictable, if they'd known anything about Twitter.

@DeVore @jmason or, you know, *people*

@geraldmellor @DeVore @jmason Yeah, because everyone is a Nazi :DD

@aBecksLife trust me, I know!

@geraldmellor that's pretty intense, are you ok? Has it been full on?

@aBecksLife haha I'm fine. Although the 600 new followers since yesterday are a bit overwhelming.

@geraldmellor a couple of my tweets went crazy (not THAT crazy though!) & I found it a bit stressful. Reminded me this is public property
