    As an animator once tasked with animating an octopus, I could tell their arms had independent intelligence. It’s the most difficult thing to animate bar none. Almost impossible to do it all 100% correct without cheats.

    • @carsonhunt4642
      @carsonhunt4642 5 месяцев назад +71

      What’s the proof they have intelligence in the arms tho? Like what is the specific biological difference in their arms?? we have gray matter in our spines that also process and integrate (make decisions) without needing to go to our main brain.
      To me it just seems like standard sensory information from the peripheral nervous system being processed the same way we do our automatic responses.

      Ok so a bit of background
      i am a 3D Modeler/Animator
      i was once given a project to sculpt and animate the character
      now the keypoint that the client needed was Realism
      so i had to make it lifelike
      15 Hours........for 15 Hours i tried mimicking a creature that has no bones and basically works like a Sentient Alien Blob Of Goo . within those hours one of they key things i learnt is that octopus like the Cartoons or as an Animated character is much better and less time consuming than trying to understand an alien morphology
      and @carsonhunt4642
      The proof is the literal fact that after getting an arm cut, the severed arm still manages to blend in and stay alive for almost an hour, this is not muscle spasms , its almost like an individual consciousness
      in short the severed tentacle is now sentient
      tho it cant feed itself (or anything in that matter) it will bide its time doing what a single copiousness with limited time would do
      Survive
      i dont think any other creatures in our planet other than squids and octopus have such an ability

      Had a discussion with my professor about this! We firmly believe that the things that really set octopi aside from being far more advanced than they could be is their shortened lifespan. If they could live longer and possessed intergenerational knowledge like our ancestors did then they'd be well on their way to turning into a species capable of stuff like language, culture, etc!

    While it's sad the octopus has such a short life span, I read in a book it's theorized the octopus experiences time differently than us due to the sheer amount of information they're processing basically all the time. I'd like to think in those really brief moments where they swim up and touch humans, it's like they're having days long conversations just from simple touch and taste and smell. And idk. Thinking about this just makes me reflect on how we can stretch out our perception of time just by noticing and appreciating all the things around us similar to the octopus.

      And they all just learn it by themselves. Because the mother dies before her offspring is born, there is no 'cultural' way of relaying information, which has been hugely important for us to get where we are. We even see it in some of the great apes who use tools to get something done and teach it to their group mates. Who can imagine what incredible things octopi could do if they were able to teach the next generation. If they ever figure out, they might easily outsmart us.
