Neural network 'in-jokes' could pass secrets

[Will Knight]

Hello
I'd be interested to know what people think of this story and whether
anyone is aware of any similarly unusual encryption systems.
Will.

Neural network 'in-jokes' could pass secrets

Artificial brains could use "in-jokes" to deliver secret messages,
according to computer scientists.

The technique relies on neural networks, computer systems designed to
mimic the brain. Just as the brain's nerve cells are wired together in a
complex mesh, neural nets consist of a web of electrical switches, or a
computer simulation of these connections.....
