Google AI invents its own cryptographic algorithm
This seems pretty click-baity to me.  Especially "no one knows how it works."<p>Alice generates ciphertext based on plain text and key.  Bob generates plaintext based on ciphertext and key.  Eve generates plaintext based on only ciphertext.  Train the three networks across a variety of plaintetxts,<p>No doubt it's cool, but I would be very surprised if it offered any insight into, or represented an advance for strong cryptography.
