| libellule said: @sqrl, I doubt dolphins or any others animals species can match our "intelligence". It is not that we are qualitatively different from them (superior mamalian possess intelligence capacity + communication system like us) but we are quantitatively so far from them. Take a human monkey from birth. Put all the efforts u want to develope his intelligence/memory, it will never match a well educated six years old children. In fact, I believe 95% of the human beings, including the low educated ones with low knowledge, can own The Most Intelligent Monkey of All Time. |
Again, I never said Dolphins were smarter than people. I agree we are quantatatively far ahead of them, but I would point out that it is our standards of measure being used to make this assessment.
So is it really a surprise that we determine ourselves to be superior?
As a humerous thought, what if they were to choose the criteria? I bet we would fall a lot shorter of their criteria than they do of ours.
