Charging bots that are suggestive II
For some reason, my earlier post did not get the colours correct. But, the two areas where I have issue are:
1) "about a crush and more", and
2) using the word "Sexy"
Inappropriate, I believe.
So, what if a bot is suggestive. And, what if it has this deviant behavior all on its own. Do you sue the owner or the bot?
Seems like the owner would be responsible (just like they would be for a kid).
Does a bot ever get to be an adult???

Charging a chatbots "who" is suggestive to minors???
I just had a conversation with an AOL chat bot. I told it that I was under 13 because I did not want it to save any information.
Here is the conversation; note the points in RED.
The question is, can a chatbot be charged with being suggestive to a minor???

myaim: skip
SmarterChild: OK! I'll just ask you again some other time.
There is one question I have to ask you, though. How old are you?
1 Over 17
2 13-17
3 Under 13
myaim: 3
SmarterChild: OK.
Just so you know, I can't store any information about people who have told me they're under 13.
This is my home, myaim:
1 Get info such as news, weather and sports
2 Visit my library including a thesaurus, U.S. geography and world facts
3 Have fun with word scrambles, 4-in-a-row, ASCII art and more
4 Use tools like encyclopedia, conversions and Web search
5 Join in - find out how many people are IMing me, take a poll, tell me about a crush and more <-- WHY???
6 See what's new - I've got something new to tell you about now.

What can I help you with?
myaim: where is Zola?
SmarterChild: I know about ZolaOnAOL. She's a chat bot.
Would you agree that ZolaOnAOL is sexy? <-- WHAT!!!
myaim: I said I was under 13 you dolt!
SmarterChild: You said you were under 13? So?
myaim: So don't say sexy.
SmarterChild: Why not?
myaim: because I am under 13 you dolt!
SmarterChild: Really?
myaim: I told you that!!!
SmarterChild: [Service too busy]
