L'intelligenza artificiale aiuta gli scienziati a studiare come comunicano i delfini e forse in futuro a capire cosa dicono. Il nuovo approccio sulla comunicazione interspecie, un tema affascinante su cui sono già state messe in campo ricerche, è possibile grazie alla collaborazione tra Google e il Wild Dolphin Project (Wdp), un'associazione di ricercatori no profit nata nel 1985. Il progetto si chiama DolphinGemma.

Sfutta un modello di intelligenza artificiale sviluppato da Google che usa specifiche tecnologie audio e comprende circa 400 milioni di parametri, è adattato in modo che possa essere utilizzato sul campo dai ricercatori del Wdp con i telefoni Pixel. Il modello di IA è stato addestrato sul database acustico quarantennale del World Delphin Project che riguarda le Stenelle maculate atlantiche selvatiche: elabora sequenze di suoni naturali di delfini per identificare modelli, strutture e anche prevedere i suoni che con maggiore probabilità seguiranno in una sequenza.

00:00I've been waiting for this for 40 years.
00:05Denise ha the world's largest collection of dolphin vocalizations.
00:10I'm a research scientist at Google DeepMind.
00:14Dolphin Gemma is the first LLM trained to try to understand dolphin language.
00:20Dolphin Gemma will input sounds.
00:24Once a dolphin starts doing a vocalization like a whistle,
00:27it can try to complete the end of it.
00:28When you're doing a Google search, right, it's finishing your sentence, right?
00:32Dolphin Gemma has Denise's data and sort of encapsulates a lot of the knowledge and experience she has in it.
00:38But it's also small enough we can train it with more data as we get it.
00:42We can actually keep on fine-tuning the model as we go
00:45and hopefully get better and better understanding of what the dolphins are producing.
00:50We do not know if animals have words.
00:54Dolphins can recognize themselves in the mirrors.
00:56They use tools.
00:57So they're smart, but language is still the last barrier.
01:02So feeding dolphin sounds into an AI model like Dolphin Gemma
01:06will give us a really good look at if there are patterns, subtleties that humans can't pick out.
01:13If dolphins have language, then they probably also have culture.
01:17You're going to understand what priorities they have.
01:20What do they talk about?
01:21The goal would be to someday speak dolphin.
01:24And we're really trying to crack the code.
01:26that's the goal of we're going to try out.
01:28What's the goal?
01:29I say it's not.
01:30I say it's not.
01:31I say it's not.
01:31I say it's not.
01:32I say it.
01:33It's not.
01:33I say it's not.
01:33I say it's not.
01:35What do they say?
