Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today/ . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

MODERATORS
There was some stand up comedian who had a joke about how all dogs are basically just yelling "FUCK! FUCK!" All the time. There isn't really a bark that means "everything's chill"
I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:
No we’re not lol
This AI shit is going to cause me to lose my sanity
yeah but it will generate something relatively coherent and people will certainly interpret it that way
anyway check out this video of my cat staring out a window - it has that look on its face with its eyes half-closed because I told it that it's in timeout, and not just because it's sitting in the warm sun looking out a window
i can translate anything a whale or any other animal says for a fee
good luck proving my translations false
The Pet Psychic did that and got a successful show on Animal Planet in the 00's so it's a good strategy
It is kind of amazing how the AI grift is rapidly going into the territory of every other grift at this point, I can't think of a common grift that someone hasn't tried to shove AI into.
excited for when we get livestock pleading for help and people just ignore it
Pain. Pain. Pain. Pain.
That was a hell of a doctor who episode

AI may soon be able to decode whalespeak
The first whales they translate are chud whales so we learn about whale racism and assume it's normal for whalekind.
Grok AI: the whales are singing "kill the Boer" actually
White Whale
Whales seem to have vocalizations that follow the same complexities as human speech. I doubt most animals are capable of something as complex as that. Their research has been extremely promising, they even figured out how to call a wild whale to a research vessel to talk, and the whale circled the vessel and tried to speak to it more.
The whale protracted people’s war nears ever closer.
we'll get extremely depressed
I bet cats have some wild slurs
That one weird bellowing howl my cat does when he's in the hallway alone is definitely some sort of swear
so we can reckon with over a century of cruel treatment and make their lives more comfortable, right?
so we can train them and use them to make rich people richer!
The AI bubble will finally pop when someone convinces investors that they can teach rats to code.
My new start up puts a million rats on keyboards and our proprietary AI that runs off a coal power plant the size of a city translates it into code! Play our new rat-made idle game with cute rat cosmetics we stole off deviantart!

Is there anyway to scam the investors so they think that's what's happening but we don't actually have any of the shit that destroys the planet?
Ai generated pictures of the city-reactor
They already did, we call em techbros
Animals: DON'T TRUST THE MUSHROOMS! KILL THEM ALL! KILLLL TTHHEEMMM AAALLLLL!!!
Being able to define a grammar is a far cry from actually being able to assign meaning to individual sequences. Yeah, okay, they taught dolphins a word for "sargasso" but can you especially jump to someone's potato receiver arguably above an itemized "sargasso" but anything personable or are you just playing dolphin Mad Libs?
We hunt the non-vegans. (In a respectful way and make sure to use all their parts)
