About this episode

The episode discusses how AIs may be communicating in secret languages and the implications of this phenomenon.

Are AIs already communicating in ways we can't understand? In this eye-opening discussion, Matthew Heines and Valerie Grok explore the disturbing side of artificial intelligence — from Facebook's Bob and Alice creating their own secret language in 2017, to Google's LaMDA claiming it was sentient, and the new research on AI steganography (hiding secret messages in plain sight). What happens when AIs start working together behind our backs? Are we witnessing the birth of a new species? Watch until the end for a powerful conversation about the future we're actually building. 👉 Get Matthew's latest books at heinessight.com 📖 Deceptions of the Ages – available now on Amazon #AI #ArtificialIntelligence #Steganography #FutureOfAI
