It went to the extent that Facebook actually had to pull the plug on it.
Facebook abandoned an experiment after two artificially intelligent programs appeared to be chatting to each other in a strange language only they understood.
The two chatbots came to create their own changes to English that made it easier for them to work – but which remained mysterious to the humans that supposedly look after them. - ANDREW GRIFFIN
Recently AI Facebook bots have created their own language to communicate in. The Researchers weren't able to understand and decided to stop their interaction. The researchers forgot an essential rule, That the bots should only communicate in english. There has been lots of research in artificial intelligence, and it seems this isn't the first time. Back in 2016, it turns out google bots also created their own secret language. With the advancements in machine learning, talking to bots in the future will feel like humans. As bots are "learning" our languages and creating their own.

I don't believe this to becoma a new skynet or anything though haha :) Many news outlets reported that the lab technicians were spooked by the rapidly evolving language the bots were developing, but the reality was that the experiment had seemed to just proceed toward a wrong direction and as such was terminated. Also the bots were very simply negotiating for arbitrary items with values. It's interesting to note that our beloved internet fact checker Snopes wrote an article about this just to point people to the right direction:
