Yeah, so I found the original article for this screenshot, and it's by Dash MacIntyre, a satirist who self-publishes on Medium.
Ah fuck. I was really hoping dolphins were slating us. :(
This doesn't mean they aren't. Just that we don't have proof yet.
We'll have to find some other excuse to duel with them.
People thought this was real?
I mean... A lot of my vocabulary is anti-human, too. Its believable enough to make me wonder.
I mean, there are real projects. I know that the orca population near Vancouver is a focus of decoding mammal language.
They have recordings going back like 30 years and log books to connect the calls to orca behavior. Last I checked (a few years ago) they were pretty far with unsupervised learning on the audio data and we're going to tackle the (barely readable) logbooks next.
I doubt we are far enough to train ai for animal-human translation on more than a conceptual level, and I doubt that I would hear about it from dolphins for the first time.
I expect a widely covered story of translating dogs' barks (or cats) first, and not in a "Hello Human, Welcome back home, I missed you. Please give me food" way (which would be probably fake) but just "Friend! Joy. Hungry"
And I don't know how we could scientifcally differentiate a slur from a descriptive name on that conceptual level.
What I don't doubt is that dolphins have slurs for humans.
Do you have any idea how stupid people can be?
With the current state of the world it is likely their parting words would be "So long, you assholes killed off the fish"
Wouldn't that be "So long and thanks for all the fish"?
Originally they were thanking the humans for feeding them all the fish. Now they would be telling us off for killing off all the good fish.
That's ^the ^^joke
I knew they were all talking about me!
Dolphins are federal agents, confirmed.
Yea... hey wait a minute!
(you weren't supposed to let on that we know - abort, abort!)
"Turn's out dolphins are racist as fuck!"
That one episode of SpongeBob was right al along
I am gonna take a wild guess (wo reading the original article), is this one of them studies where they throw a neural net at dolphins and see if it sticks.
It's satire, it's been around since at least 2017.
darn it, I really hoped someone would think that they can understand dolphins with neural networks. I should tone down my expectations.
This is like the dolphins who unionize and strike against the villains organization in starter villain by John sculzi llol
They are particularly angry at someone named "May."
I wonder if they see us some sort of deformed octopus or squid, like our arms/legs just look like tentacles to them?
That is why I call them dolfucks.
I know this is disinformation, i'm going to upvote it anyway.
Meh, I stopped upvoting things because I liked them and started upvoting things I wanted other people to see. That's how the algorithms work anyway
I'm going to spend the rest of my life developing ui for whales to send intercontinental missiles
#NotAllDolphins
We are going to find out dolphins use the N word aren't we?
Neanderthal
"Hey Ceasar, welcome to our city, to show our loyalty we have kill Pompi for you"
It's treason then...
