How clever is an octopus, really? | AI 

Kinda what I thought 🧐

I know 😁

Do chimps even eat crabs? If there was a banana, my guess would be that a chimp would just smash the flask and chow down!

Chimp would just smash it

😂 “geez, another jar?! how many times do I have to tell you humans that it’s, ‘righty tighty and lefty loosey’” - the octopus

Yep...& it would be Correct.

Jepp... exactly my thoughts too !!!

I didn’t know they could breath on land until watching this video,

Hahaha. Good stuff.

​@@karlbjorkquist7489 I don't think he's joking, very in character for them.

I think that would be the mantis shrimp. That looks way more alien.

ever meet? bold statement

@@AdrianCHOY Not really...it resembles a praying mantis. There's nothing like Cephalopods.

@@shanelarsen695 think so? If something is smart enough to have the means to get here, they’d be smart enough to know to stay WAY away from us. Look at how people treat each other. It’s horrifying. And we treat animals even worse.

@@ChaoticNeutral89 Its like screaming in the jungle. Sending signals and probes out into space you do not know if a literal Jaguar walks out. Jaguars dont care about how humans treat each other or any of that non sense, they are superior predators that will kill you. Who knows whats out there its not always some hyper intelligent friendly thing, thats crazy to think given the way nature is structured.

That was my decision when I finally met one a few years ago. Octopus was one of my favourite starters, now I feel awful about it

I’ve never thought about eating one. I don’t really eat seafood due to all the toxic chemicals dumped in our oceans. Some countries are worse than others but we’ve *all contributed* to this problem and some continue making it worse

​@@ReiverBlue1971 I feel bad about it, but so long as I know I'm not eating one I've befriended, well...such is nature, food is food, and they're delicious

XDXD

unfrotunately the chimp drowned

They did it with a jar outside of water

I’m surprised the chimp didn’t just break the glass.

A chimpansee can just break the glass

And yet sick humans still horribly slaughter these creatures to eat.. eat raw sometimes...😢😢

@@billsauer3164 Yep. I made a conscious effort to never eat that again after I was made aware of how intelligent these magnificent beings are. I feel bad that I ate a brother earthling.

Dane, you to smart for your own good. That wont get the founds to keep researching going.

I find it mind boggling that people believe an accident over time designed this creature. The complexity is proof it was designed by a creator.

@@spikenomoon first YOU MUST PROVE the existence of a "creator" Then you have to provide evidence to support your claim that this "creator" designed it. Show us the difference between something designed by some creator and something not. I highly recommend you take some courses regarding evolution. It would definitely help you not come off as a resounding arrogant ignoramous. Something that comes way too easy with theists. You clearly demonstrate this.

Yeah..

Same man.....

I felt they could’ve used a dead crab that’s still safe for octopus to eat, maybe a defrosted one from the seafood market…

No, not really. I'd feel bad if it was literally tortured, but i don't think crabs have the cognition required to view this situation as psychological torture, like a person would.

It. Is. Nature. Do y'all eat meat? You wouldn't want to know what they do to it before it gets to you.

Right, I was just thinking how wonderful a pet octopus would be, but nature is (sadly for me) what's best. But it would be awesome to make a little octopus obstacle course or something, somehow.

Octopuses can fit through any hole larger than their beak-so, very pliable. Also, much of their “brain” (neurons) is actually in their tentacles, about 2/3 of them. The rest are in a doughnut-shaped brain that wraps around their esophagus in their head.

Make sense because their brain is actually located between their eyes and the head like thing you see is where its digestive system and kidneys are located

Also, they have NINE brains.... not just one.

@@jeremymiller9582has to be no smaller than their eye

Just imagine if we weren't here and they would have a few thousand (or million) years to evolve. This is some alien sci-fi movie level stuff.

​@drstrangelove77 they likely wouldnt get much farther than they already have, perhaps communities and tribes but all underwater its hard for softbodied animals to have any hold over land, the land on earth is always either a kingdom of the vertabrates or kingdom of the arthropods, with softbodied worms and molluscs almost never having any ecological reign.

This will be our end,😅 🐙🦑🌎

Calm, composed, smart, shape shifting, adaptative, i wouldn't mind if my boss was an octopus

I was just thinking that, "How'd he know it was lefty-loosey righty-tighty?" Then I was like, "Wait, is that righty-loosey lefty-tighty? How'd he know THAT!?" lol

50/50 chance

It was staring in a horror movie. Watching its killer slowly make way into its entrapment.

😂😂😂😂

@@billsauer3164 😂

Perhaps, but crabs are a major part of most octopuses' diets. This happens all the time in the wild.

Don't worry , these people would be horrified one day.

@@Xbalanque84 See a lot of crabs in flasks and jars in the wild eh?

Smart as a dog?

@@hackman669 dogs are dumb. How many dogs you see lying dead on the side of the road because they were too stupid not to try and cross during traffic.

@@hackman669 smarter

​@@hackman669dogs are dumb lol they always barking to something thats bigger than themself xd

@@kelvinkeme9397 Yeah I suspect so too.

Was it the actual pilot, or just the co-pilot?

​@@threethrusheswith that many arms it can operate the whole console by itself

You had me invested in your story...oh snap!

Exactly. This kind of videos are for those the "wow!" in "got talent" style on whatever!

but not if U are stuck in jar with it

The biggest hurdle facing the octopus is that they taste so much better than squid. 😎

Seen it as well. It's very cool!

I'd love to know the title of this movie.

@@gustavusthoren7112 If my memory hasn't totally failed me, I think it was "My Octopus Teacher". (Yep, just checked. It's still up too.) I agree with Brennan & Shane, well worth watching.

@@markwallace1727 Thanks a lot!

how old are u now ?

How does that work?

@@ashtray3860 my pet octopus had already a degree in nuclear physics, so Calculus for him was easy peasy. 😁👍

@@redangrybird7564 somehow I feel like this is farcical… 🤔🤔

@@ashtray3860 😁👍

its also got its own part of the brain, meaning each arm is like its own sub-octopus - a subpus? lol You can see how they wiggle around, thats becuse each arm is doing stuff on its own the head is just were it all gets coordinated

yeah, some other comment said that they use their tentacles to get to clams and it's similar to the jar. The video said that this is a problem they've never seen before and now that just sounds like some press statements. I was scrolling over the comments because I was skeptical and thanks for saying this in my biology textbook though I,C in a diagram of their nervous system and it is complex relatively to other organisms. relative to other animals they also perform complex tasks. Didn't state what tasks but this bio textbook is used in many AP bio classes, called Campbell biology. anyways, at least this video had some really cool shots of octopuses dynamically fitting into small openings relative to their size😮

Or 'me' (I could catch that goat😅)! 🐐😋🤤

I agree... that poor crab was tortured waiting to see when he'd meet his doom. 😳🥺😢

​@@PADS62 oh cry me a river

@@Human_01 You no nothing about goats if you think you could catch one, at least unarmed.

@uxdecipher1724 I'm crying Laughing at your sorry, I have no compassion for anything, a$$! 😁

I will not eat squid or octopus (calamari) because it seems so wrong to kill them. Breaks my heart to think of them dying prematurely; they are so amazing.

Big ones are scary and a fight for your life if they grab you. My boss from Taiwan said his father had one grab him when he was in waist deep low tide waters. Only way he could get away from it, he was able to free a hand, reach his knife and started cutting it.

Said it was very strong, but what was worse was if you got something free, it was hard not to get immediately grabbed again.

Octopuses have DNA they are definitely not aliens

They can fit through holes smaller than the size of a quarter.... it ain't getting stuck. Period. Unless you trap it in a penny.... good luck🖖🏾

They've taught a goldfish how to drive! Check it out on RU-vid!

Yes.

Quasimodo predicted all of them.

Oh heck, my pet rock has at least three times the intelligence of a politician! Much more empathy as well.

​@@k.l.manring2083 I am voting for your rock in the next election!

@@k.l.manring2083 tell him to stand up as a candidate for election

Are the politicians stupid or is it the ones who believe politicians are stupid, rather than purposefully malevolent?

​@@k.l.manring2083Let's get that rock on the ballot 🐙 #2024

Yes! This is the most facinating thing about them. Mother dies right after their birth so she can't teach them anything. So they restart everything again and again without transfering knowledge

I wonder if having a community of them in captivity would kind of "force" them to learn from eachother even if it's not their mother that's doing it.

@@jayrandhawa8548 @kennydoggins1712 some good stuff fellas

@@jayrandhawa8548 read what the other guy said

They do not die after laying their eggs!

There is a RU-vid channel I've found recently called YBS Youngbloods. It's an Australian guy who is basically the modern day Steve Irwin, running around the wild nature showing us in high quality all of the incredible animals in the ocean and along the coast. It truly is amazing. Your comment made me think of him and I'm going to go watch him now :) The other day I watched him find some blue ringed octopus and give us a really awesome look at them in their native habitat. Let me know what you think!!

@@gaiaconnectionsaustralia modern day steve irwin wtf how do you even compare those 2 hes just on the ocean bro and making catch and cook 🤣🤣🤣

@@Kado1609 that's not all he does! He is showcasing our gorgeous nature, just like Steve Irwin did; and his passion is unmatched

@@gaiaconnectionsaustralia alot of passionate people out there my friend i respect you for being a fanboy of him but hes still not comparable to Steve Irwin.. all kids in alot of countries knew steve Irwin not many kids knows this guy not even close

@@Kado1609 Steve was unique like Bob Ross was unique, but times were also different back then. There can't be another Steve Irwin, the way we watch TV now makes that impossible. I don't really know if Steve could have survived this climate. He was a wild man..he'd have a hard time even though he was amazing and magnetic on camera. He helped raise some great kids though and they're helping to carry the torch. I think Steve's timing, when he hit the scene, was probably perfect. So many greats couldn't make it in this environment. The Discovery channel, History channel, Travel channel are NOTHING like they used to be. It's a damn tragedy.

and what is the process called ive seen it before in other vids an im just curious at this point

They can't , they're too Civilized to worry about small things. 😤
