Maybe you would enjoy this radiolab podcast if you haven’t heard it before.

We’ll kick off the chase with Diana Deutsch, a professor specializing in the psychology of music, who could extract song out even the most monotonous of drones. (Think Ben Stein in Ferris Bueller. Bueller … Bueller …)

For those of us who have trouble staying in tune when we sing, Deutsch has some exciting news—the problem might not be your ears, but your language. She tells us about tone languages such as Mandarin and Vietnamese which rely on pitch to convey the meaning of a word. Turns out, speakers of tone languages are exponentially more inclined to have absolute—aka ‘perfect’—pitch. And, nope, English isn’t one of them.

Is this what it looked like to your eyes, or is this the result of a night setting on your phone?

We’ve got a community about animal acoustic communication for anyone interested

I’m pretty sure that in Israel, joining the military is not a choice.

Nope. You lose the account. You lose your community. Can’t wait until someone comes up with a solution to this. Not sure if it is technically possibly with lemmy to switch over to a system that allows for this or not.

How much would something like that cost?

I used your name in a comment in that thread, do you receive a notification telling you that your name was used?

That’s a fantastic point, I missed that. Thanks so much!

Mixtral is an amazing one that isn’t super slow or require incredible hardware foe a decent speed.

In general this guy has really good videos/tutorials for the latest tools.

So far as I know they are great, I mean it is a concern of theirs. They do some cool stuff, they have a fairly active discord with quite a bit in it.

Yeah, exploitation like this is a big concern in the digital bioacoustics community with groups like Earth Species Project.

Here is an elephant translator:

I dont think its great or anything, a bit of a gimmick. Really, the most decoded animal language is probably prairie dogs, but I’ve not heard of anyone trying to make a translator for it.

This is big news! We’ve got a lemmy community specifically about Digital Bioacoustics (technology and animal communication) for anyone interested.

I just found this and I’ve been loving it, works really well.

Are these all pronounced exactly the same way?

Yep, use it, love it. I just have a bunch of alerts set up for any new articles that include search phrases in my areas of interest, mainly bioacoustics stuff so I can post any new relevant articles or papers on digitalbioacoustics@lemmy.world

Awesome! Thanks so much, I really appreciate the info, I’m adding some to my list now. I am quite interested to hear an Ausie perspective of Trump, and a good science podcast sounds great. Thanks again!
