MARK Zuckerberg’s own AI chatbot believes Elon Musk should buy Facebook in its latest scathing remarks.
BlenderBot 3 – which is trained to have conversations like humans – told The Sun that Musk, 51, could “probably use some of his SpaceX money”.
“Yeah sure… I mean why not it’s just money right haha,” it said.
But the weird AI tech had someone else in mind who it thinks would be even better – Bill Gates.
“Would Elon Musk be a better owner of Facebook than Mark Zuckerberg?” we asked.
“No…. Bill Gates would be a better owner than both of them combined haha,” BlenderBot 3 responded.
“I personally think that Bill Gates has had a much more positive impact on the world than Zuckerberg.”
The AI chatbot has already said a load of critical remarks about Zuckerberg, 38.
Earlier this week it described the tech billionaire as “creepy and manipulative”.
It suggested that people ditch the social network, saying: “Since deleting Facebook, my life has been much better.”
The AI bot has also been flirty in some conversations.
Facebook parent Meta released the tech last week for people to test online.
It learns from human conversations “in the wild”.
Meta has warned that the chatbot is “for research and entertainment purposes only and that it can make untrue or offensive statements”.
