Comment on Animals could easily be talking to us if we tried

There is no training dataset to map the sensor data to thoughts. We don't know the meaning of what they're thinking. It's futile without a way to develop training data.

A very limited training dataset can perhaps be created with binary choices that the animal can be trained to communicate via physical actions. With sufficient effort, an embedding model mapping thoughts to concepts can be developed. Still, how to convert the embedding vector to text is unclear.
