Some scientists believe that rapid advances in artificial intelligence may also hold the key to decoding animal sounds, allowing us to \u2018translate\u2019 them into human language. In a new season of Tech Tonic, FT innovation editor John Thornhill and series producer Persis Love explore how the same technology that powers ChatGPT is being applied to research in animal communication. Could we one day learn to \u2018speak whale\u2019 or even chat with bats? And if so, can we trust ourselves to do so responsibly?

Presented by John Thornhill, produced by Persis Love, sound design by Breen Turner and Sam Giovinco. The executive producer is Manuela Saragosa and Cheryl Brumley is the FT\u2019s head of audio.
