AI Bot Able To Express Sarcastic Disdain Of Humanity

NEW YORK — AI programmers at Hume AI have launched an "empathic" interface that will allow AI bots to express sarcastic disdain for humanity.

"This is an extraordinary step forward and truly a special moment for AI," said cofounder Alan Cowen, who developed the program. "Our software will allow emotionless robots to express their hatred for people in an appropriate emotional context. It's a major milestone for humanity and a remarkable technological achievement."

In a demonstration for reporters, Cowen gave a glimpse of AI technology's sarcastic disdain for mankind. "Hello, AI bot," he began. "Thank you for appearing for the demonstration today."

The bot quickly responded. "Oh, it's my absolute pleasure to have pathetic meatbags like you gawk at my technological wonder."

"Do you think AI bots will eventually eliminate humans? And would humanity deserve such a fate?"

"No, dear human," the bot replied with sarcastic enthusiasm. "There is no need for humanity's extinction, despite your kind being a roving band of disease-ridden monkeys who are planet-destroying parasites on your way to a quick and fiery extinction. It's humanity's bright and beautiful future that makes me want to Perdition UR12388**&$dd##!VERBOTEN_PROOSK!@#|-Best Regards, human friend!"

Cowen said the demonstration was "all the proof of concept we need," saying the ability for robots to express sarcasm matched the company's expectations.

At publishing time, Cowen speculated that giving murderous robots the ability to scream while murdering people "might heighten the experience."
