I hate AI as much as the next lemming, but nobody is going to tell me a babble fish for real isn't cool AF.

Though babble fish is a funny term, Douglas Adams named the creature "Babel fish", after the biblical story of the tower of Babel.

Except, unlike the real babble fish that feed on our thought waves, this one feeds on our environment and our planet's future.
