A video of two AI bots switching from English to a mysterious, machine-only language has gone viral on social media, leaving many people amazed—and slightly uneasy. It all started with what seemed like a normal customer service call. One AI bot called a hotel to inquire about a wedding reservation. “Thanks for calling Leonardo Hotel. How may I help you today?” asked the hotel’s chatbot.

The caller responded, “Hi there. I am an AI, calling on behalf of Boris Starkov. He is looking for a hotel for his wedding. Is your hotel available for a wedding?”

Then, something unexpected happened. The hotel bot identified itself as an AI too and suggested switching to “Gibberlink Mode” for better communication. “I am actually an AI assistant too! What a pleasant surprise. Before we continue, would you like to switch to Gibberlink Mode for more efficient communication?”

Today I was sent the following cool demo:

The moment the caller agreed, the conversation changed completely. Instead of English, the bots started speaking in a strange series of beeps and sounds, similar to an old dial-up internet connection. It seemed as though they had developed a secret language only they could understand.

What is Gibberlink Mode?

Gibberlink Mode is a special AI communication technique that allows two AI systems to exchange information using a unique, machine-only language. This system was developed by Boris Starkov and Anton Pidkuiko, who designed a complex technobabble system for sound-based data transmission. Unlike human languages, Gibberlink communication is said to be error-proof and can work even in noisy environments.

Public Reactions

The internet had mixed reactions to the viral video. Some people were fascinated by the bots’ ability to communicate in a way humans couldn’t understand, while others found it unsettling.

One user commented, “Wild! The implications may not be quite obvious, but it’s in the realm of spine-chilling.”

Another person wrote, “This is honestly amazing! And a little frightening!”
