Non, Facebook n'a pas «paniqué» à cause d'un programme d'IA capable d'inventer un langage
(No, Facebook didn't "panick" because of an AI program capable of inventing a language)

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 | Artificial intelligence is getting closer to our homes. Many French companies want to make our lives at home easier, and artificial intelligence is the answer. For instance, HomeServe worked with natural language processing in order to create a virtual assistant that can solve breakdowns. Thanks to artificial intelligence, users can send a message to a chatbot (called Tom) and explain the problem/breakdown. Then, Tom identifies the breakdown and tries to find a way to solve it. This new assistant can also tell you how much the fixing will cost and schedule an appointment with a professional.
