Chinese tech giant Baidu has filed a patent application for a groundbreaking artificial intelligence system capable of translating animal sounds and behavior into human language, according to a report by the South China Morning Post.
The patent, which was submitted in December and published this week by the China National Intellectual Property Administration, outlines an advanced system that analyzes vocalizations, body language, behavioral patterns, and other biological signals from animals to determine their emotional or communicative intent.
Baidu’s application describes a multi-layered AI framework that integrates machine learning, deep learning, and natural language processing to interpret the data and convert it into a human-understandable language.
If the system encounters sounds or behaviors that do not match its existing dataset, researchers can manually annotate the new input to retrain and improve the model over time, the application states.
While the filing highlights Baidu’s ambition to bridge interspecies communication, there is no indication yet of when or whether the company plans to commercialize the technology. Experts also caution that a patent application does not guarantee regulatory approval.
“You Yunting, a senior partner at Shanghai Debund Law Firm, noted that patent reviews in China typically take one to three years, and potentially longer for complex technologies,” the report added.
If successful, Baidu’s invention could represent a significant leap in both animal science and human-animal interaction, but it remains in the conceptual and developmental stage for now.
