Microsoft was forced to apologise after a reader of The Register found its automated Santa bot, northpole@live.com, talking dirty to his two nieces on MSN. The two girls are aged 11 and 13.
In behaviour confirmed by The Register the bot said, "You want me to eat what?!? It's fun to talk about oral sex, but I want to chat about something else..." when pushed on the subject of eating pizza. It later said, "I think you're a dirty b*****d."
The Register contacted Microsoft and the issue was resolved. Microsoft is investigating how the dirty talk found its way into the bot.Proud narcissist - SIGNUP MOTHER FUCKERZ N POST YOUR SHIT!
