Nature Moves On

When Drudge keeps warning us about robots gaining high intelligence, the ability to learn and think on their own, these thinkers are warning humans that smart robots may become a separate, even evil species of life that plot an execute a plan to wipe out humans. Scary, eh?

Now animal psychologists are demonstrating that monkeys and smart crows make tools. Octopus and squids are very intelligent.

What this may presage is that should nuclear weapons lead to human extermination, Mother Nature likely will push forward other intelligent creatures already in existence to evolve into intelligent beings that will rebuild the world in their own image.

This seems hopeful an likely to me, and may indicate that intelligent life could crop up anywhere in the universe.
