Researchers are applying machine learning techniques to translate the sounds animals make. It’s part of the rapidly growing field of AI translation.

“AI helps the translation process in two ways,” Nataly Kelly, author of the book “Found in Translation: How Language Shapes Our Lives and Transforms the World,” told Lifewire in an email interview. “First, by improving the grammar and flow of the source text. Second, by completely automating the translation process. Products like Grammarly can improve the original writing, while online tools like Google Translate automate the translation.”

The nonprofit Earth Species Project recently published a roadmap that researchers hope will enable them to translate animal language using AI machine learning techniques.
