Sweary robot flusters presenters live on the BBC (Video)

Mind your language...

If artificial intelligence really is taking over, they need to sort out of their potty mouths.

BBC Breakfast’s Louise Minchin and Charlie Stayt were presenting a piece to camera about AI, and were joined by a robot friend called ‘Linda’, who had presumably been programmed to say a few words.

When Stayt turned to Linda to thank her for joining them, the swearing android replied with what sounded very much like:

“F**k you Charlie, f**k you Louise…”

It was either poor diction and she meant to say ‘thank you’, or Linda has developed a mind of her own and it’s pure filth…
