To the Editor:

Over a hundred people attended “Patrick and the Whale,” a fascinating film, at the LBI Foundation last Thursday. For those who would like to know more about the use of AI in communicating with whales, I highly recommend a detailed story by Elizabeth Kolbert about this project in the sea off Dominica. It is in the Sept. 11 issue of The New Yorker: newyorker.com/magazine/2023/09/11/can-we-talk-to-whales.
