Pakistani guy makes a chat robot, what happens next shows the ugly face Pakistani public
KARACHI (Web Desk) - A Pakistani programmer has devised a chatbot for automated conversation but as usual it was ruined by abusive people.

According to the details, Mateen Ahmed a programmer from Karachi rolled out a chatbot. The chat bot basically learns from what people say to it and gradually tries to acquire intelligible language. Once people start conversing with it, the robot tries to imitate them and eventually starts having proper conversations that can make sense.

However, in this case in just 9 hours the programmer was shocked to see the ugly responses of his fellow citizens.

At first it was harmless...
