AI System Claims to Decode Chicken Clucks

Researchers in Japan claim to have developed AI that can translate chicken clucks.
The system uses "Deep Emotional Analysis Learning" to detect hunger, fear, anger, etc. in chicken vocalizations.
It analyzes chicken sounds and relates them to emotional states with purportedly high accuracy.
The results are preliminary and have yet to be peer-reviewed.
The lead researcher believes this could lay groundwork for understanding animal emotions.
