The goal isn’t to replace the work of humans. It’s to make a case for its devaluation.

When asked by reporters in Ottawa today about the post from Hegseth, Prime Minister Mark Carney said the message was "beneath their office."
"When the Americans stop doing memes, stop throwing shade, stop trying to be tough and start being serious about having the discussions, we can have those discussions," he said. "But it's not constructive, but that's their democracy."](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:wwxyzknmxaan4psyyqv3dgw6/bafkreifneoy6dobs7wupjcc6o4boibdglbciunh2tmjcifvqkwwk2sjybq)

Text: Frequency analysis was completed on the trimmed recordings using the linguistic software Praat, version 6.1.55 (http://www.praat.org, accessed on 1 November 2021 [79] to obtain the mean wingbeat fundamental frequency for each individual recording. Pitch analysis settings were set to a Gaussian window: window length 6/75 (0.08 s), with a silence threshold of 0.01, a voicing threshold to 0.5, a voiced/unvoiced cost at 0.01, the pitch range set to 100 to 350 Hz, and autocorrelation was selected as the analysis method. The entire spectrogram was highlighted to obtain the mean fundamental frequency for each recording. Visible pitch contours were extracted for each individual recording and provided information on the number of valid (voiced) frames, estimated spreading at the 84% median, and range. Trimmed audio recordings of less than 1000 valid frames were discarded and not included in the analysis (Figure 1).
[Figure shows a diagram starting from of a raw .wav file, illustrared by a spectrogram. From the spectrogram an arrow to "pitch detection", then arrow to a box titled "mean fundamental frequency / wingbeat frequency", illustrated with a classic waveform & spectrogram combo from Praat, and a spectral slice laveled with a fundamental frequency and harmonics.]
