How do you find the archived version of news stories? I see many communities have automatically archived version, how does that work, broadly?
Thank you.

Isn't it more like, a guy who wanted to kill the Queen talked to a chatbot about it, and the chatbot rolled with it cos chatbots will default to rolling with whatever you give them? Just seems the likely scenario to me ..
Yep, this BBC article has a couple of the chat logs. If they're representative, the bot is no more culpable than if he asked a magic 8-ball.

History has had many instances where people very logically followed a thought process that led them to the truth of killing off the royals as a solution to socities woes.
Legitimate debates could be had about the pros and cons of this solution. French revolution could teach us all a lot about today's capitalists (read royals).

There should be no kings or queens. Just like there should be no slave owners...
19 20 ReplyThat is a different topic, I am not saying you are wrong, but in this case I'd focus on the fact that a chat bot encouraged a person to kill another.
