A: Hey there! Guess what? I just heard something amazing!
B: What is it this time? You always have interesting news.
A: So, check this out! A team in Japan developed tech to automatically identify cicada songs even in a chorus! Isn't that cool?
B: Wait, really?! I didn't know they could do that! How did they train the AI to recognize different species?
A: Well, they set up microphones and collected data from July to September last year. They analyzed the recordings using AI tech and found it's very accurate at identifying the songs of five cicada species!
B: That's amazing! So, how does this technology help us understand climate change?
A: Well, they discovered something interesting! If temperatures are high from late August to the end of November, the large brown cicadas start singing earlier next year. This could be a sign of how climate change affects our ecosystem.
B: Wow, that's fascinating! I wonder if this tech can be used for other creatures too?
A: Absolutely! They said it might help identify the impact of climate change on the broader ecosystem for creatures like crickets and frogs.
B: That's great! If we can understand how different species are affected, we can better protect our environment.
A: Exactly! And since cicadas are everywhere, they might be able to help us track the impact of climate change on a nation-wide level.
