Apparently, Groogle is using one of their abominable intelligences to
communicate with dolphins, presumably to steal their IP. Having skimmed the cream from all of human imagining,
new frontiers must be identified - and their moist riches harvested. I guess we'll see how that goes! It's gonna depend a lot on the species I bet.

Wake me up when we can talk to birds, that's my official position. I wasn't aware that they were fighting each other with these songs; or singing the songs of other birds wrong to flex on them, claiming hexes. I sort of just thought they were saying "I'm a bird" over and over, and in some ways that's true, but they're putting a little English on it.

I used to use Merlin Bird ID to summon birds as though by magic, but then I read that it might not be cool? I didn't know it was bad to useMerlin in this way; I thought it was like a really good bird call. And it only worked one time, they don't give a shit anymore. Even the first time he gave me the side-eye, but that might simply have been a function of avian vision. I could feel it, though; I did not require a powerful software model to know him. It was unambiguous: "where's ur beak at bro."

(CW)TB out.
