Toast message
The origin of chatbots on the internet, at least in 2016, was arguing against people against vaccines on twitter.
Seriously, the origin of the modern chatbot was to argue provax on twitter. Because amplifying the provax position was worth making digital shills. Excerpt from my original post on this:
> In 2015, DARPA held an open challenge, where the goal was simply to quickly and accurately identify political chatbots - so called 'influence bots' - from actual users. The battlefield was Twitter, and the corpus comprised 4.1 Million tweets from just over 7000 users, all arguing for and against vaccination. Mixed in with these users was 39 highly evolved influence bots, **all of which argued for vaccination.**
> **Every Influence Chatbot represented a pro-vaccine stance.**
> Here's the whitepaper (read it - it's good): https://arxiv.org/abs/1601.05140
