Neuro-sama is a virtual streamer who plays Minecraft and the rhythm game Osu! on tweets. However, unlike most similar anime avatars, it is controlled not by a person, but by artificial intelligence. And that draws viewers into streams of her trying to taunt her, whether with innocent questions or outright trolling. Naturally, at one point she was asked what she thought about the Holocaust, to which she replied, “I’m not sure I believe it.”
This is just one of many controversial AI responses to such complex topics. Neuro-sama has also said in the past that women’s rights do not exist. And to the well-known riddle about the tram on the tracks, she said that you need to leave the fat man.
This vtuber which is entirely artificial intelligence is doing very well as you can all see 😭 pic.twitter.com/Yu8gqWJOip

Still, for all the trolling, Neuro-sama is an impressive simulacrum of a twitch streamer. So streamers should start thinking about acquiring practical skills, because in a few years they could be replaced by much more flexible and believable AI.
Regarding the answers about the Holocaust and women’s rights, the developer of the AI streamer, the programmer with the nickname Vedal, explained in a conversation with my citythat the system is less than ideal, try to set filters and train the AI to avoid negative predispositions. There is also a team of chat moderators to choose what to respond to.
According to the developer, he will no longer talk about the Holocaust. But now he’s trying learn to sing.
