It's amazing that a cuttlefish was able to memorize person, woman, man, camera, TV.

Not surprised. Cuttlefish and octopuses and squids are all super fucking intelligent. They're awesome little dudes.

Just invoking the marshmallow test is silly since it's one of those typical social psychology manipulations where the wow factor comes from a small manipulation having a large impact. Like, a single trial effect prediction life outcomes 20 years later or whatever? You should be pretty skeptical to begin with, because a single measurement of anything is going to be...pretty much noise? Anyway, long story short, the mashmallow study predicted SES from SES. --- =E[(x-E[x])(y-E[y])] ... Copied to Clipboard!
