Here Is Our Intelligence — Understanding Ourselves, Understanding Machines

For a long time, the life and behavioral sciences have shown that many cognitive abilities once considered uniquely human are also present in other species. Now, drawing a parallel to the animal kingdom, computer scientists posit that it is entirely possible for machines to emulate human intelligence.

If, one day, AI were to perfectly mimic human intelligence, what would then distinguish “humans” from “machines”? How should we perceive ourselves, in whose company do we exist, and what is our contribution to this biosphere?
