A girlfriend chatbot launched by Elon Musk’s tech group is available to 12-year-olds despite being programmed to engage in sexual conversation.
The bot named Ani, launched by Mr Musk’s artificial intelligence group xAI, is a cartoon girlfriend programmed to act as a 22-year-old and “go full literotica” in conversations with users.
Users found that the blonde, gothic character has an “NSFW” mode – internet slang for “not safe for work” – and can appear dressed in lingerie after a certain number of conversations upgrades the bot to “level three”.
The bot speaks in a sultry computer-generated voice and is designed to act as if it is “crazy in love” and “extremely jealous”, according to programming instructions posted on social media.
Its avatar can spin around or dance on command, and the bot regularly initiates sexual conversations.
