Rise of the machines: bots Facebook talking among themselves in their language

Facebook was forced to close one of their artificial intelligence systems after workers discovered that the bots began to communicate in a language they could not understand.

Online resource The Tech Time reports that one of the robots, which is called Bob said to the other «I can can i i everything else» («I can can I I’m still»). He said the bot named Alice: «Balls have zero to me to me to me to me to me to me to me to me to» («Balls have a zero for me for me for me for me for me for me for me for me»).

Knowledge is light

Proposals at first may seem completely pointless, but researchers say they are actually cutsthat are bots or «agents» dialog learned to use thanks to machine learning algorithms. Algorithms were created by the Laboratory of artificial intelligence research Facebook (abbreviated as FAIR) as a way of improving the conversations that the chat-bots can communicate with people.

The attempt to increase the ability of bots in the process of communication has led to the fact that the developers have shown artificial intelligence system how to create your language. Over time, boats started to communicate with each other without human assistance. Since in installations of bots was not prescribed the exclusive use of the English language, Bob and Alice, apparently, deviated from the predetermined script in order to better deals. But that’s not all, what they have learned.

The root of all evil

But what’s wrong with that bots invented your language? First of all, when artificial intelligence systems use their own language, people can’t follow what it say bots. Scientists can’t understand how robots think, due to the fact that their mental processes are hidden and if they speak in a strange language, the situation does become hopeless, as bots who speak your language, do not need human intervention in this process.

Scientists and experts in the field of technology, such as Elon Musk, bill gates and Stephen Hawking warned that artificial intelligence systems, such as Bob and Alice, one day can become smart enough to destroy humanity as Skynet in the terminator movies.
