Bird: "I don't know man, shit's fucked"

Jeff Bezos: "Damn, you right. Pollution going down tonight!"

Wouldn't birds* mostly be like: "Get the fsck out of my forest you mofos, unless you're female and willing, then come here and bend over!"

( * and many other animals, but mostly birds)

Yes, this is very exciting, and AI that's being used for a valuable research.

I wanna be able to talk with cats, raccoons, possums, and (worship) octopuses

Maybe we should pump the brakes a bit, mr Deep

Given where we are with LLMs, it actually feels like AI would make communication with animals very feasible.

How talking with animals would change our world … by someone who has real expertise in this subject here to tell you what’s what. Not a topic to be discussed over joints and whiskey, nope this is a serious topic that only Mr Expert On The Sociology of Interspecies Chitchat is qualified to talk about.

Don't we need a validator of some sort? To teach the ai when it's doing something right? I wonder how you train an AI on something you can't do yourself.

I thought about ai talking to animals and i think at first level we will be limited to read behavior, mood, emotion but we will still miss their identity and potentially dreams, deeper opinions.

Note: i didnt watch the vid, would prefer to read an article about it.
