Do you ever wish you could have a conversation with your pet, or the bird outside your window? This hour, we learn about how animals communicate with one another, how we communicate with them, and what this can teach us about human language with @arikkershenbaum. Plus, how pets…
A few days ago I was asked by @kncukier "whether language is a cognitive ability that’s unique to humans, or just one of many modes of communication dotted across the tree of life". You can hear the conversation that followed here. Stay tuned for the second episode.
On “Babbage” this week, the first episode in a two-part series that explores animal communication and efforts to translate it in the age of AI econ.st/3EBFfrq 🎧
