Given the evolution of AI vs the evolution of animal language, the probability is actually heavily leaning towards the opposite.


I would really like a _very_ detailed explanation of how AI is evolving instead of just having more computation power and shortcuts applied.


Why is much detail required for the pace of change comparison?

Animal language doesn’t change much. Dogs sound pretty much the same as they did 10 years ago.

But AI generated sounds have changed rapidly in the past couple of years. In terms of music generation, sound to sound translation, and audio to text transcription.


Actually I believe this is false. If dogs are not socialized with other dogs there is a distinct lack of language, body language varies incredibly on a per dog basis. You can say most are adopting human like mannerisms to communicate with us better.

Smart glasses might be able to leverage the process of LLMS to decipher a gesture or two of dog like behavior, but it also has to learn it from the that dog's own unique vocabulary.

It is different if a group of animals is socialized between themselves for a long duration and time. Why? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Language_deprivation You do not genetically pass down language. It has to be learned or made up.
