@benroyce Supporting and helping other people is a most unselfish act a human can achieve. You cannot TRump this.

@Piousunyn Not nearly enough of this going around. It’s why our success as the “most intelligent” species on the planet is in doubt, at least to me. 😔

@LaNaehForaday @Piousunyn Dolphins, and mice if you like Hitchhiker’s guide. ☺️ The thing is there might be a connection to intelligence and our problems. I remember a study of monkeys where they are close to us, and displayed some group dynamic issues we can relate too. Yet there is definitely a leap from small and tribal to civilization and worldly, digging grubs vs astrophysics, the concept of existence, reality, spirituality, etc.

@Huntn00 @Piousunyn

Yes to this and if were doing water I have to also add whales. *Loved the Guide.

We are just the care-takers that have conveniently left off and forgotten the 'care' part, altogether.

@LaNaehForaday @Huntn00 @Piousunyn "Artificial Intelligence" can add numbers. A lot of them. Really fast. Actual intelligence is much more complex. Beyond mere logic, there are critter aspects of intelligence that machines will simply never be able to acquire. The machines have some usefulness, but we should not sacrifice toning our mental muscles just because we can foist the work off to the machines.
