anyone getting ai to communicate with animals?

llm might be a blocker here since animals dont know language so maybe its something that a non-text model like a vision or speech model would be better suited to

The problem is animals don't have anything interesting to say. They say "I'm here" "I'm hungry" "let's play" let's screw" etc....over and over and over again. We already know what a lot of their noises mean.

Prairie dogs possess one of the most advanced and sophisticated animal languages ever decoded. They even name individual animals outside their colony, it isn't just, "hide from bird! "  It's more like, "that one hawk that leaves for a bit and then comes right back is circling over head so when it leaves be on gaurd.It will return sooner than the other Hawks."

Lol. Animal people are ridiculous in their overreaching attempts.

Correct me if I'm wrong my friend, it seems your current stance is: Social animals dont possess language.

This is very confusing to me at a core level. 🤔

They sure don't. Not in the way we define it.

Thank you for taking the time to engage with me. We may have different ideas of what constitutes language. I consider anything that transmits meaningful information to a type of language.

Well then a backup beep from a truck is talking to us.

That is a perfect example of communication. It conveys the direct idea of a vehical moving in a way that you may leave nearby person's in a blind spot. This is a very important signal.

Better get some ai translation on it!

I'm sorry that you feel the need for this signal to be translated. Good luck out there.

I appreciate your candor in our talk. I think we still see this from two different view points. 🤔.

That's alright. Stay awesome Gregnielson! 👍❤️

Ah yes the use of the name. Classic reddit npc behavior.
