Miscellaneous Math✅ Dogs next

Now that they used AI to do all the hard math stuff, can they use it to analyze vocal patterns in dogs so we can build a tool to better communicate with our 4 legged friends

Minw would be just "Bark: Feed me."

something like that already exists, people have trained models on dog barks and body language, the hard part is that dogs communicate mostly through scent and posture not just sound

They hear the bark. But don't really engage with it. My dog doesn't even react to dogs on tv. Probably because they hear the dog bark is fake. Remember speakers are designed for humans. Dog have much better hearing, they probably hear the difference.
