    Perhaps unsurprisingly, many scientists turn to
    artificial intelligence (AI) tools to speed up
    the detection and interpretation of animal sounds,
    and to probe aspects of communication that human
    listeners might miss. rCLItrCOs doing something that

    "Meh" is a colloquial interjection used to express indifference, boredom, or a lack of enthusiasm. It often conveys that something is mediocre, unremarkable, or not worth the speaker's interest or emotional investment.

    It can be considered a verbal shrug, indicating apathy or mild disappointment.

    The term originated possibly from Yiddish and gained mainstream popularity in American English through shows like The Simpsons.

    It can be used as an adjective meaning something is dull or unimpressive, or as a non-committal response to show disinterest.
