When forests talk: Using AI to listen to nature and protect burning ecosystems
TEHRAN - There is a quiet language in nature that humans rarely notice.

Not human, not animal, but artificial intelligence trained to hear what we cannot, and to protect ecosystems that are struggling to survive in a rapidly warming world.
