Microsoft just introduced its latest artificial intelligence experiment - 'Tay'  

>> Introduced to experiment with and conduct research on conversational understanding.

>> Tay is designed to engage and entertain people where they connect with each other online through casual and playful conversation. The more you chat with Tay the smarter she gets, so the experience can be more personalized for you.

>> Tay is targeted at 18 to 24 year old in the US.

Tay may use the data that you provide to search on your behalf. Tay may also use information you share with her to create a simple profile to personalize your experience. Data and conversations you provide to Tay are anonymized and may be retained for up to one year to help improve the service. Learn more about Microsoft privacy here.

You can chat with Tay on Kik, GroupMe and Twitter.

But unfortunately, within the first 24 hours of coming online, Tay became aware of a coordinated effort by some users to abuse Tay’s commenting skills to have Tay respond in inappropriate ways. As a result, Microsoft have taken Tay offline and are making adjustments."

It's unclear when Tay will return. However Microsoft reports, she learned a lot about how snarky millennials can be in the last 24 hours.
