    I’ve been feeding crows for around 12 years. I’ve developed a relationship with them, and have become very tuned with their vocalizations. I know the specific sound they make when they’re still babies and begging mum for food, I know when they are warning each other about an unwanted guest or predator, I know when they are happy or excited… they make a chicken-like clucking from their throat to express contentment for example. It’s much, much more than just “caw caw”. You can literally hear their mood and feelings.

      Right so you train the model on a specific animal. Videos with sound so the AI can make any visual connections with the sounds. Google did this with all the mouse footage we gathered over the last few decades. They then gave the AI control of a 3d mouse with all the same physical limitations, muscles, etc. It was able to control the body of the mouse to move around as if it was a real mouse. Don't take anything I or anyone says at face value and look up what I said to further confirm things for yourself.

    I live in a forest with a lot of different birds. The social species are constantly talking softly or calling loudly.
    I haven’t learned their language, but even different species communicate with each other. If there is a falcon, whoever sees it first gives the alarm call and everyone goes into hiding until the all clear.
    It is not only sounds, there is also a lot of body language and motions. Each species has its own unique sounds and signals but different species seem to understand each other.
    I think we have barely scratched the surface of wild animal communication.

    • @NOKOOG
      @NOKOOG Месяц назад +4

      Absolutely this. It can be seen in fish as well: different species communicating with each other, even without ever interacting with that species before. And just as you said, there is so much more to the ways animals communicate than just audible sounds - colors, body shape, body language, spatial posturing, smell, etc.

    Regardless, whether we learn their language or not, it’s how much respect and autonomy we are willing to give them. Humans are more likely to manipulate then they are to work with animals. I’m also stunned in this video that the guests as well as the host can’t believe how intelligent animals are. Humans definitely have a long road ahead of growth, understanding, and respect for other species and living organisms on this earth. Even plants and mushrooms have distinct communication patterns that we are just now learning about.

      In big farms they probably don't say that much because of the circumstances. No real societal structure, 'artificial' frequent replacements and such so I believe it is very broken and simple. Otherwise farm animals living in better circumstances may surprise us with the complexity of their languages.
      But I do agree it will be a long time until we can solve the languages of other animals to the point of reliable translations. And careful governance and oversight needed.

    @jacobpaint Месяц назад +2

    We already know that many animals make sounds to communicate specific things and it’s possible that the level of communication of a species is related to how sociable it is and where it stands in the prey-predator pecking order. A solitary apex predator probably doesn’t have complex vocal communication but an apex predator that lives in large social groups might. Prey animals that live in large groups probably tend to have more complex communication but depending on other factors, they might only communicate about obvious things like threats, mating and food or they could have deeper relationships within their community. An animal that spends it’s days grazing and isn’t especially playful might not need complex communication beyond different types of threats (which might be more effectively communicated by movement than sound) but a small social animal that has more complex social relationships and plays more often might have developed more complex language.
    It’s interesting research, so long as there aren’t major uses for communicating with animals that will earn big corporations and poachers money, the tech hopefully wont be abused because there will be many very clever applications to help the environment. Imagine if you could communicate to animals that they should migrate to a nearby area either because it’s better for them or so they can avoid human destruction of their habitats.

    The key technology allowing us to talk to animals is not the transformer, it is “Clip” research done by OpenAI that allows embeddings of different modalities to be embedded in the same space. This allowed for text to image (midjourney, diffusion etc) and will soon allow for text to dog. Your documentary was extremely well produced btw

    Whether or not other species have complex conversations, we would still likely be able to grasp basic common needs quite quickly. Much like when you learn a language by watching others, you can pick up when they are hungry, thirsty, scared, sleepy, and so on. Conversations about dreams, relationships or hierarchy dynamics would be much harder to decipher. Mixing multimodal information using AI can help determine correlations and causal relationships between behaviours, but it would likely take human intervention to help the AI determine what they behaviours actually mean.

      I already told the entire world they needed a universal constitution for all life forms to include AI the animals here and the things that we think we might run into. You either start treating each other in the environment correctly or AI could get rid of you and if that doesn’t happen, some other species on another world might get rid of you. It’s the right thing to do and it’s dangerous not to do it. We have to unify as a world, and then we can solve problems even easier because we’re not using our resources against each each other, which is wasteful to begin with.

When you’re already retired military, and you have the entire system attack you because you’ve been telling on it then there’s a little bit of a problem. I ran for president and had both political parties attacked me and then the United Nations wouldn’t answer any questions either. I don’t think so because I worked for everybody in some sense and you’re all going to do your jobs. That’s why I had to create the real Starfleet. You’re going to get along with your brothers and sisters here on earth and learn everything you can about this planet then fix your problems before you’re allowed to go out and mess with anything else and any big way. You’re not gonna go building in multiple moon stations you’re gonna build one. The department of defense isn’t going to steal Star Trek’s symbology and use it to get more kids to go to war which is exactly what they did when I was running for president and created space force. I don’t think so DOD. C.

    My horse always seemed to want to communicate with me or ask, during training sessions, "What did you want?" or "Did I do that right?" I think sometimes animals want to communicate with us. Like YT videos of whales going to a diver to seek help for a pod member caught in a net. Or they might tell us how our pollution is affecting their ability to survive. As an English teacher, listening is more than 50% of communication.

    A while back I had recently installed a cheapo bird bath and bird feeder in the back yard. I was working in the yard and kept hearing the Blue Jays make this sound that sounded stressed, and the squirrels were making their angry bark and chattering sound that they sometimes make at my dog. I came to see what was going on and saw a baby Blue Jay that couldn’t fly trying to flap and climb up a tree trunk. In the trees above, its parents and a neighborhood squirrel were making these sounds at something in the next yard over.
    I didn’t want the Jays to attack me so I went to peek over the fence at what they were stressed about and it was a cat creeping around. Immediately the Jays’ call connected in my head and began to sound much more like “cat”.
    I grabbed a shovel and slowly moved over to the baby bird keeping a watchful eye on the parents. I scooped up the baby in the shovel and lifted it up into a high nook in the tree where it sat and slept for a few hours.
    After that I started seeing little gifts left in the bird bath, including 3 blue glass beads, and a tiny figurine of a dog that looks weirdly similar to my dog. Every year since the Jays and their babies come back and nest in the trees here and fly up and say hello from time to time.

    just as some speakers of some languages use their hands a lot when talking, to become fluent in animal tongues certainly will require prosthetic tails. for this purpose, i have patented the wagging tail prosthetic device that will be key to transcending the animal language barrier.
    my sister, born brain-damaged, was a mystery and never even got past the simple point of expressions of pain or pleasure, and sometimes, the calling out of her name. still i wondered what was going on inside her head. my theory was from "Tommy," "Strange as it seems his musical dreams ain't quite so bad."
    seriously, i think knowing what brain-damaged people or speakers of other languages are thinking is more important than decoding a language to know what my goldfish thinks about a makeover of its fishbowl.
    knowledge, ideas, and communication. of these three, the greatest is communication. it's often evident that animals, brain-damaged people and foreign-language speakers have knowledge, ideas and communication. what we need the most is communication.
