I think this only works if you consider intelligence only in relative terms. I like to think that humans have at least some "absolute" level of intelligence required to understand that another creature can be more intelligent than us, whereas chimps probably can't grasp that concept. So it'd be easier for humans, I reckon.

- tempguy9999 7y ago"I think" ... "I like to think" ... "probably can't grasp" ... "I reckon" Oh come on! That's pure opinion based on what? Am I supposed to be swayed by that? And if you look at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Bonobos_Panbanisha_%26_Kanzi_with_Sue_Savage-Rumbaugh,_2006.jpg https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Bonobos_Panbanisha_%26_Ka... do you still feel that the chimps (bonobos) can't recognise SSR as being smarter in some way?
