Interesting results were obtained in a study examining the ‘mental health’ of artificial intelligence chatbots. It turned out that the robots participating in the research exhibited depressive and alcoholic behaviors.
It seems that artificial intelligence chatbots may be more like us humans than we think. As a result of a research, many popular chat robots depressed and alcohol addict turned out to be.
In the study, conducted by the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) in conjunction with Chinese chatbot company WeChat and entertainment conglomerate Tencent, famous chatbots were asked common questions about depression and alcoholism. All of the bots surveyed – Facebook’s Blenderbot, Microsoft’s DiabloGPT, WeChat and Tencent’s DialoFlow, and Chinese company Baidu’s Plato chatbot – are quite low scores took. This means that if these robots were human, they would very likely be considered alcoholics.
Chatbots display serious mental health issues

Additionally, the study noted that Facebook’s Blender and Baidu’s Plato scored worse than Microsoft and WeChat/Tencent chatbots.

On the other hand, this is not the first problem encountered with artificial intelligence robots. An artificial intelligence designed to give ethical advice to people before; contrary to his purpose, he made racist and homophobic statements. As such, frankly, human beings use these artificial intelligences. the people who designed I can’t help but wonder what kind of people they are.
