Researchers at the Royal Institute of Technology in Sweden and biologists from Cole Moran Wildlife Park have identified potential dolphin laughter through a combination of whistles and pulse sounds. An initiative called Project SETI utilized AI to analyze sperm whale communication, revealing structures akin to human language. The ability to engage in a 20-minute conversation with a humpback whale was achieved, raising questions about interspecies communication. Despite progress, linguistic complexities remain, and researchers emphasize the need to remain cautious about over-interpreting whale vocalizations in terms of human language structure and meaning.

Critics argue against labeling sperm whale communications as a phonetic alphabet.
The exploration of AI in marine biology illustrates a significant frontier where technology intersects with conservation. Utilizing AI to interpret dolphin and whale communications enhances our understanding of these remarkable species and their behaviors. This approach can uncover not only the nuances of interspecies communication but also inform conservation efforts effectively. For instance, tracking vocal patterns can lead to insights on social structures within pods, ultimately aiding in tailored conservation strategies.
Examining whale communications through AI lenses challenges conventional definitions of language and meaning. While the algorithms reveal potential patterns that suggest structured communication, it’s crucial to acknowledge the significant variance in interpretation compared to human linguistic systems. This divergence necessitates a broader understanding of what constitutes a 'language' in a marine context, pushing the boundaries of traditional linguistics far beyond anthropocentric views.
