Artificial intelligence is being developed to interpret what pets, such as cats and dogs, are saying to humans. Researchers are analyzing facial expressions and vocalizations using extensive video data. Cats, for instance, display 276 facial expressions, with variations depending on whether they're interacting with humans or other cats. Daniel Mills, a veterinary behavior expert, highlights AI's potential to identify emotions through ear positions and other features. Beyond pets, AI is aiding animal welfare and conservation, analyzing pain in cows and vocalizations in species like zebras and rhinos. This research could deepen understanding of animal behavior and communication.
