We are awful with human to human communication and AI hasn't helped with that. We need the technology (or straight up common sense) to get humans to listen to and watch other animals, more than talk. (Yes, I'm being nitpicky about the headline.)

It took scientists forever to say animals might have feelings. Meanwhile, anyone who has spent any time with animals already knows this.

Ohh, it's the jaw of the whale in the thumbnail
