> Perhaps many animals are more equal in "raw intelligence" than we would think I think the incredible difficulty of something like machine vision versus, say, boolean logic says a lot about how similar most animals, and especially mammals, are. We consider the parts of our intellect that are most logical to be what distinguishes us from the other species. But it turns out that kind of stuff is really simple, computationally. Computers have been better at it than humans since basically as soon as computers were invented. Whereas all the stuff we have in common with most other animals turns out to be really fucking hard.
