    The chatbot probably can't actually dox someone, in that it doesn't have the functionality to actually hackerman rip your ip address or whatever. It's garbage-in garbage-out: it's just parroting what real people say online in chat forums in circumstances like this, because it's just a juiced-up auto-complete keyboard and can't think, and the humans in charge of it evidently didn't think or they'd have consulted lawyers and censored threats like this out of potential responses.

    What I'm saying is that Microsoft somehow managed a monumental feat of technical engineering: they managed to digitally clone a 4channer
