Excuse me, but it recognizes all of us cephalopods as sentient beings, thank you very much.

Too bad this 'bnnbreaking.com' is literally the only source for this story.

Ok I had to Google this because I've never seen anything on squid intelligence. Octopus and cuttlefish, yes. Looks like squid got more going on than I'd previously thought.

I still need some convincing on decapods though.

Also, do you like own Lemmy or something? You're EVERYWHERE.

Well, it's not surprising he gets around. He can fly after all.

I loved him in Baldur's Gate 3

lemmy is free software running on federated servers. no one owns lemmy.

[-] Scubus@sh.itjust.works 3 points 10 months ago

I own Lemmy all the time

Yeah, HN flagged and removed the link.

Is there a legal definition of sentience?

[-] Heavybell@lemmy.world 4 points 10 months ago

Dunno about legal, but I'm pretty sure the scientific bar for sentience is pretty low. You basically just have to have senses (e g. hearing, sight, etc) and react to stimuli to be sentient.
