Researchers are utilizing a new AI model named DolphinGemma, developed by Google, to better understand dolphin communication. By analyzing various dolphin sounds, including whistles and clicks, researchers can identify patterns similar to human language. The Wild Dolphin Project has collaborated with Google, using Pixel 6 phones to record data underwater more efficiently. The goal is to construct sounds that dolphins can comprehend and replicate in response to tasks. Furthermore, Google plans to release DolphinGemma as an open model for broader research use this summer.
Dolphin sounds fall into specific categories, such as whistles, squawks, and clicking buzzes, linked to different contexts and behaviors, comparable to human language.
DolphinGemma will allow researchers to analyze dolphin sounds in real-time using Pixel phones, reducing costs and improving field work efficiency.
