Summary | Chatbots are the future! Soon, you'll be able to do everything thanks to chatbots (e.g. order a pizza, schedule a meeting). With Facebook, the idea is to introduce third-party bots into Messenger. Existing chatbots are not perfect yet; they are still slow and don't always understand everything. Facebook's goal is to create something flawless, a platform for your phone where you'll be able to book a table, pay a bill, order a cab, check the weather, and manage your relationships.

Summary | Facebook had to deactivate two artificial intelligence chatbots called Bob and Alice. They had begun communicating with one another in a knockoff language similar to English with sentences like: "I can can I I everything else." Because this communication is unintellegible for the developers, Bob and Alice were taken down for security reasons.

Summary | Mark Zuckerberg is working on an artificial intelligence assistant to help him in his household. It can be operated by voice command or text messaging and it can make toast, operate his lights or front door, or shoot grey t-shirts out of his closet. Its voice is the voice of Morgan Freeman. The only problem is that not all household appliances can be hooked up to the chatbot since they do not have wifi connectibility.
