Facebook shut down an artificial intelligence experiment after two robots began talking in a language only they understood.
The “chatbots” Alice and Bob modified English to make it easier for them to communicate - creating sentences that were gibberish to watching scientists.
A robot expert said the revelation that Facebook machines had spoken in their own language was exciting - but also incredibly scary.
UK Robotics Professor Kevin Warwick said: “This is an incredibly important milestone, but anyone who thinks this is not dangerous has got their head in the sand.
“We do not know what these bots are saying. Once you have a bot that has the ability to do something physically, particularly military bots, this could be lethal.

These "experiments" must be stopped before any real damage is done. What happens when they no longer can be shut down?
