"While scientists have known for years that dolphins use a very complex language to communicate amongst themselves, the new findings suggest that they might be able to string together five-word sentences, and could even use a form of 'grammar' to influence meaning." https://www.engadget.com/2016/0

Frequency following response to clicks could be an evolutionary pathway to acoustic transduction of neuron spikes. The neural generators of the *frequency-following response* (FFR), a neural response widely used to study the human auditory system, remain unclear...Supportively, topographic compari

Linguistic structure is undoubtedly present in the firing patterns of some subset of neurons in the human neocortex. Before I dismiss the plausibility of dolphin sounds being relatively direct transduction of neuron firing, I'd want to see what linguistic structure looks like in human neuron firin

A human is a human, and a team of them can only be a human. The goal steps can be split among their arms, eyes, brains, data. The more the global swarm brain knows, the better. It also needs redundant clones. When you have many humans working on sub tasks that are each different domains, these a
