Exploring Manipulation and Expectations with Chatbots

We examine Meta’s plan to charge a fee to use Facebook in lieu of targeting users with ads to comply with EU regulations. For $100 a year the NYC based Cloaked lets users create multiple “identities” of different email addresses, usernames, password and phone numbers that can be used at different websites. Your expectations and beliefs about a chatbot may affect how you talk to it, thus affecting its responses.

Starring Tom Merritt, Sarah Lane, Roger Chang, Joe.
