Whales, Orcas, and the Power of AI in Animal Communication

This chapter examines the innovative use of artificial intelligence to decode animal communication, particularly focusing on humpback whale songs and the plight of resident orca pods. It highlights the challenges these marine animals face due to declining salmon populations and human-induced environmental issues, such as illegal captures and ecosystem disruption. The conversation underscores the ethical concerns surrounding animal captivity and the pressing need for conservation efforts to protect these intelligent creatures and their habitats.
