If we could communicate with animals, what would they tell us? What could we learn from nature about conservation?

In an effort to harness the power of AI to better understand animal communication we have awarded the Earth Species Project a $1.2 million grant to invest in fundamental research that is critical to make progress in this futuristic concept of "communicating with animals."

We are investing in this kind of fundamental research in part because we recognize that the AI and computation revolution has untapped potential for conservation. Earth Species Project will help the conservation community with new curated data sets, benchmarks, and AI tools that can lead to a better understanding of animal behavior and communication.
