凱倫‧貝克: 虎鯨能來 TED 演講嗎？

虎鯨能來 TED 演講嗎？

如果我們能夠聆聽自然界的超音波溝通並且回應，會如何？從蝙蝠尖銳的語言到孔雀的次聲波求偶呼喚，保育技術研究員凱倫·貝克會在演說中帶領大家進入一個動物聲音的聲音之浴，這些聲音遠超出人類聽覺的範圍，她也會展示人工智慧如何譯解大自然聲音的複雜性。她要讓大家思考這種轉變性技術所帶來的道德負擔，並探討保育、跨物種溝通等未來機會所呈現的可能性。

Artificial intelligence and bioacoustics are revealing the intricate languages of animals, from bats with regional dialects to coral larvae navigating the ocean by sound. Scientists have decoded millions of bat calls and even discovered baby turtles communicate before hatching. This technology is already protecting endangered species, as whale songs now guide ships to prevent deadly collisions. As humans gain access to these hidden soundscapes, ethical questions and new opportunities for conservation emerge.
