Consider: millions of years ago our antecedents gave a massive sacrifice of their left hemisphere. We lost a tremendous amount of short term memory and replaced it with Broca’s, Wernicke & the phonological loop. But why? So we can—talk. Thus chimpanzees can do this—we can’t:pic.twitter.com/CDznxg37p1

Have you tried this with people who aren’t neurotypical?

Dan, thanks for asking. I got to meet Kim Peek (Rain Man in the movie staring Dustin Hoffman). He had an ability that would surpass any of the Chimps. I wrote some here on

this paper claims it is just overtraining: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/m/pubmed/20702883/ … This isn’t my field. Is this a disputed result?

Luke, thanks for asking. The university that is doing this primate research in Japan has over 3000 studies with 1000s of subjects. It is clear that the Chimps can our perform humans with little training.

Interesting! I’d love to see the videos of strongly incentivized people trying and failing to really drive it home.

Yes, but at the same time, I have questions. Humans have better things to do than play your games, while chimps really have nothing else to do. I mean, the reward for chimps is more like paying humans $100 each time they get all 10 numbers.

Thinking you can beat it is foolish, the speed is fascinating, barely figured out it gets a reward and already slammin those numbers after like 3 sec. Break a piggy bank and arrange coins into groups of 5’s-7’s of each nomination and see why the rule applies very well. To all.

Have you seen professional Brood War? 200-400 deliberate actions per minute.https://youtu.be/YbpCLqryN-Q

that is misleading. most of those actions are rhythmic. broodwar champion and analyst Day9 said broodwar is similar to a rhythm game like beatmania(source tasteless podcast) Obviously some actions are thoughtful, but 200 is a gross overestimate
