Summary | Dhruv Batra, a researcher in artificial intelligence, read many Facebook posts and tweets describing apocalyptic scenes about the fact that artificial intelligence had invented a new language. Batra wrote an article denouncing how the media portrayed the event. When Facebook programmed two bots to teach them how to negotiate, employees noticed that the bots had invented their own language. The new language was based on English vocabulary; therefore, it was more or less comprehensible. But since the program was not working the way it was supposed to work, workers modified it. They didn't "kill" it, so there is no reason to panick.

Summary | Facebook Messenger's boss claims that consumers will use messaging apps more and more, at the expense of emails, phones, and mobile apps. Other people have also been privileging the conversational mode in the service industry: Kik's boss (Ted Livingston) uses "bots", which are robots that simulate human conversations. For instance, if you're hungry, you can order a pizza using Domino's pizza's bot. A similar trend is happening in China with WeChat. What is interesting about WeChat is the fact that it can give out personal information to product and service suppliers.
