Can AI help us talk to dolphins? The race is now on
Talking with animals may no longer be just a childhood dream. A new AI-powered competition—the Coller Dolittle Challenge—is offering up to $500,000 annually, and a $10 million grand prize, to push the boundaries of interspecies communication. This year’s winner? A team decoding decades of dolphin recordings, identifying unique whistles that may act as names or warnings. With AI helping to sort, analyze, and even respond to animal signals, researchers are getting closer to cracking nature’s most elusive conversations—one whistle, wave, or chirp at a time. Mariana Lenharo with Nature has the full story.
