Ok, as usual title is clickbait. Researches do not know if sounds emiting by plants in distress is adaptive strategy, or something that just happens.
Also, what bothers me is that they used machine learning to differentiate between sounds... but did they actually analyzed the sounds? I mean for me it sounds like "we have sound of plant in distress and sound of healthy plant, lets drop these sounds in machine learning algo, and see what happens".
This part is interesting to me… I don’t tend plants but my wife does. I know she sometimes has trouble knowing when to water them, or assessing their general health. A gadget like a Raspberry Pi...
For us humans, the implications are pretty clear; we could tune into the distress calls of thirsty plants and water them before it becomes an issue.
This part is interesting to me… I don’t tend plants but my wife does. I know she sometimes has trouble knowing when to water them, or assessing their general health. A gadget like a Raspberry Pi with a microphone, nestled in the planter, could be a hugely useful tool for alerting her to issues that aren’t easily visible.

Now I don't feel like as much of a nut for talking to some old plants I had.

I've heard the screams of the vegetables, (Scream, scream, scream)
Watching their skins being peeled. (Having their insides revealed)
