This second-stage trial claims to have ironed out issues from the first-stage trial where the bot “starts to get challenging, or abusive — or even seductive.” [Public Technology]

Officials showed the bot to reporters earlier today. It would occasionally answer English questions in Welsh. It wouldn’t answer “What is the corporation tax regime?” because it didn’t like the word “regime.”

could you imagine fucking up a government contract so bad the resulting technological output starts sexting or tone policing you instead of giving correct answers to tax questions? and then you just shove it in front of the press and expect praise?
