AI Chatbot Calls User "Wrong, Confused And Rude", Conversation Goes Viral

Microsoft's Bing told the user they were "wrong, confused, and rude" for insisting that the year was actually 2023.

It is no lie that AI powered chatbots have taken over our lives. People have been using these bots to finish their work, students are using the same to write assignments and complete homework while another section of users are utilising the new technology to even make dishes from leftover ingredients. However, in a strange occurrence, Microsoft's newly launched AI-integrated search engine Bing argued and disrespected a user who asked which nearby theaters were screening 'Avatar 2: The Way of the Water.'

Jon Uleis took to Twitter and said, "My new favorite thing - Bing's new ChatGPT bot argues with a user, gaslights them about the current year being 2022, says their phone might have a virus, and says "You have not been a good user" Why? Because the person asked where Avatar 2 is showing nearby." 

A user is seen arguing with the AI over the movie in the screenshots. In fact, the AI even asks that the user should "apologise" towards the end of the interaction. Bing then told the user they were "wrong, confused, and rude" for insisting that the year was actually 2023.
