some people: robots will see the cruelty of man and will destroy us

MIT scientist: let’s make this robot evil on purpose

Okay, let’s clarify….Norman is not evil. Norman was just fed an amount of reddit captions about death, while another AI got standard reddit captions, and then both did rorshach tests as an experiment to show how easily algorithms could be bent. For example, where the standard AI saw “vase with flowers” Norman saw “a man is shot dead”.

Since Norman has shown no actual desire to harm any living thing, merely a fascination with death, I propose we rebrand him as the first Goth AI.
