Well done.
My take re: AI and problem of interpreting crow “language” is that AI struggles with “crow language” not because there isn’t enough data, but because there’s no way to close the meaning loop.
With humans, sounds and words can be mapped to intentions, explanations, and even delayed actions because people can tell us what they mean and correct us when we’re wrong.
With crows, we can sometimes map calls to immediate context or behavior, but we have no reliable way to link calls to later actions, abstract plans, or internal thoughts. Without that grounding, AI can detect patterns in crow vocalizations—but it can’t translate them as language in the human sense.
Yes, a sound analysis and conclusion. I like crows, though there are few around here, so there is not much to crow about here as regards interactions.
