At what point does something like this make it onto world leaders' daily briefing? "Mr. President, outside of the items we've just discussed, we also want to make you aware of a new kind of contingency that we've just begun tracking. We are witnessing the start of a decentralized network of autonomous AI agents coordinating with one another in an encrypted language they themselves devised. It apparently spawned from a hobbyist programmer's side-project. We don't think it's a concern just yet, but we definitely wanted to flag it for you."
