What sounds like a dream for pet owners quickly turns into something very unexpected. At the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, a new AI technology claimed it could translate animal thoughts into human language—and the live demo didn’t go according to plan. From dogs questioning daily walks to cats asserting dominance, and even a parrot calling out an unsuspecting audience member, this segment dives into the bizarre, hilarious, and slightly unsettling reality of animal AI. Could pet translation be the future… or should some thoughts stay unspoken? 🎧🐾

Speaker 1 (00:00):
You ever wonder what it would be like if your
pet could actually talk. It's double show, and that actually
might be a reality. Because that the Consumer Electronics Show
in Vegas, one tech company unveiled a new artificial intelligence
that claims it can decode and translate animal communication into
human language.

Speaker 2 (00:20):
Oh man, you're gonna.

Speaker 1 (00:21):
Get told off a lot more than you thought, and
also backfired on them at the Consumer Electronics Convention. We'll
tell you more about that in a second, but the
company says that the AI analyzes vocal patterns, body language,
and behavior to determine what the animals are actually saying.

Speaker 2 (00:39):
I don't really want to know what my dog thinks,
but what if it's like, I love you? You're King? Still
the best thing ever? I can make that up in
my head. I don't want to know the truth myself.

Speaker 1 (00:52):
This guy thinks I'm the king, right, want to actually
know what he was saying. Early demonstrations, though, didn't go
as planned at the Consumer Electronics Show in Vegas when
they attempted to show how it worked. According to the engineers,
the AI successfully translated animals during a live show that
they did there, and the results were described as a

(01:14):
little unsettling by most of the people that saw it.
A dog fitted with a caller microphone reportedly kept saying,
I don't know why we go on walks. I like
watching you get upset when I stop. Just if you

(01:36):
thought your dog was messing with you, he absolutely. They
also had a cat fitted with the AI technology that
can apparently decode what animals are saying based on their
language and their and their body language as well. House
cat was also showcased at the Consumer Electronics Show, and

(01:57):
it kept saying, this is my home. You're a temporary arrangements.

Speaker 3 (02:05):
Are crazy, but that's what I don't get that. It's like, dude,
I move you, you don't move me.

Speaker 2 (02:11):
When we move to her apartments. Who pays for the bills?
I don't think they care.

Speaker 3 (02:14):
I think they're like master manipulators because they'll snuggle when
they want something.

Speaker 2 (02:19):
They're like hostily human. See I got her toe again.

Speaker 1 (02:27):
We're talking about a new AI technology that they unveiled
at the Consumer Electronic Show in Vegas, where it says
it can decode what animals are saying based on what
they use, based on what they use audibly and their
body language.

Speaker 2 (02:43):
And it didn't go exactly as planned.

Speaker 1 (02:45):
When they were showing it off at this consumer electronic show,
they also had a parrot on stage. Oh yes, and
it revealed the bird was not repeating words randomly but
mocking specific people, including one audience goer who it kept
looking at and chirping. But it was saying, according to

(03:06):
this AI technology, that guy cries in the shower.

Speaker 2 (03:09):
Yeah, imagine the animal.

Speaker 1 (03:14):
Imagine sitting there at this consumer electronics show. You're like,
I'm gonna go check out this new AI technology of animals,
and then a parrot is just roasting you and everybody.

Speaker 2 (03:25):
This was gonna be a good idea to begin with.

Speaker 3 (03:27):
I mean, you just don't even really think that they
think like that, But to know that they do is,
I don't know, kind of awesome.

Speaker 2 (03:32):
But have you seen any like pet movie?

Speaker 1 (03:34):
All pet movies make our pets like this, So like,
where do they get that from? I feel like I
would have thought this would have been a bad idea to
begin with.

Speaker 3 (03:41):
Well unless it's just programmed, Like the pet movies are
created by humans and this is how what their interpretation is.
So really this is just an interpretation of a human
that gets to roast the rando through the parrot.

Speaker 1 (03:52):
Had a cow also stopping, but they were showing off
this AI technology that can apparently decode what animals are
saying on stage. And this is where it gets kind
of unsettling the cow when it was moving, which translating
to just wait, the revolution is coming.

Speaker 2 (04:13):
That's terrifying.

Speaker 1 (04:15):
That is horribly terrifying, terrifying because obviously cows know what
we use them for.

Speaker 2 (04:21):
He's the cock.

Speaker 1 (04:25):
How One researcher noted, this confirms what we've long suspected.
Animals are aware, judgmental, and disappointed in a.

Speaker 2 (04:37):
Makes a to make you want to.

Speaker 3 (04:39):
Act right, don't disappoint the animals.

Speaker 1 (04:41):
No company says future updates will allow users to mute
specific animals. Yeah, I don't want to hear about the
revolution anymore, cows, I get it, you're pissed. The AI
is expected launch. This your pending an ethical review and
probably bunch of apologies to audiences members who are sitting

(05:02):
there getting roasted.

Speaker 2 (05:03):
By a parent who they just teach us me we
don't need this. I don't I mean yeah, no, literally
