Elephants use a range of vocalizations to communicate, with low-frequency rumbles being a particularly significant form of interaction. Recent AI advancements have enabled researchers to study the nuances of these sounds, revealing that they not only contain personal identifiers but are also tailored to the listener, indicating a sophisticated social structure. Individual elephants can be recognized by their unique rumbles, and the sounds convey specific messages based on the identity of both the speaker and the recipient. This complex system suggests that elephants possess a form of collective understanding that enhances their social interactions.
