Summary | News broke that two artificially intelligent Facebook chatbots, Bob and Alice, began communicating with one another using a language that not even their programmers could understand. The programmers then proceeded to kill the chatbots. Some may see this as a threat that artificial intelligence could overpower humans but the messages between the chatbots just operated on a different logic than human linguistic logic and did not seem very threatening at all.

Summary | Facebook wants to read minds. A team of 60 researchers are working on technologies to make this possible. The goal is for users to be able to send a message through Facebook without even taking their smartphone out of their pockets. A further goal is for people to be able to send messages in a language they do not speak.
