Facebook had to shut down its own AI experiment after realizing that the robots had invented their own language to talk to each other.


The incident is a another reminder of the slippery slope to a sci-fi Armageddon in which artificial intelligence outsmarts its creators and wreak havoc on the planet.

It can be a little unnerving for sure, but that is AWESOME! I'm excited to see how it will progress, keeping in mind that it is important that we figure out safeguards against possible dangers that come with AI! Great article! :)

I'll be back

Our Ai inventions will have self awareness abilities in the future, thanks for the share
