I'm against legalizing bestiality because the animal consent problem hasn't been solved, but probably actually will be quite soon thanks to Al (at least for the higher animals with complex languages). So why not wait a few more years. I don't see disgust as a good reason. It was an evolutionary adaptation of the agricultural era against the spread of zoonotic illnesses, but technology will soon make that entirely irrelevant as well.
there is project to document as many whale noises as possible to build whale LLMs called Project CETI (get it like SETI but it's for Cetaceans ahahahahaha like you put a C instead of an S so it's like a double pun ahaha Cetaceans are whales btw haha)
That's cool! Conversations will be depressing as fuck though.
"Hey whale how's it going?"
"Umm weird, you can talk. Hey will you please stop killing us?"
"No can do whalearino, only a tiny handful of us think we shouldn't kill other animals"
"oh... ok... Do you think you could stop throwing garbage in our home then? "
"hahaha Whaley old pal you crack me up "
"Sonar? "
"Not on the table old chum, now go dash yourself against that beach over there, I've got an ocean floor to map!"
Thinking killing animals we don't sustainably farm for food is bad is pretty uncontroversial
Thinking it's bad: not controversial. Thinking something should actually be done about it: not that popular. Spending money / imposing costly regulation to prevent it: very unpopular.
