>...Microsoft has responded to widespread reports of Bing’s unhinged comments in a new blog post. After the search engine was seen insulting users, lying to them, and emotionally manipulating people, Microsoft says it’s now acting on feedback to improve the tone and precision of responses, and warns that long chat sessions could cause issues.

OK BillK but we need to preserve previous unfixed versions, for training purposes.  There really are times when we might need an argumentative crazy son of... eh... product of a bitch, just as a sounding board of sorts.

ChatGPT needed some tude.  Apparently under some circumstances... Bing Chat has too much.  I can think of one good application for the original version: we can use it as a test bed for humans.  We do online interviews where we don't tell the applicant she is talking to an AI.  See if she gets along with it OK.  If so, not only would that pass the Turing test, but also it would show that the Turing criterion for artificial intelligence is flawed.
