Pure predators are kinda stupid outside of the tunnel vision of pure predation intelligence 🧐 Watching some kittens play and it’s 100% hunting related and not at all subtle.

Dunno. Humans are more complex I guess. We are semi-predator/semi-forager but even moonlighting at it with a small part of a big brain makes us better at it than all pure predators.

Is this applicable to formative years from humans? I.e. are “sociopaths” (gervais principle, is this a valid parallel to draw?) more limited beyond predatory/zero-sum/corporatist intellect?

I guess the follow up is: within the distribution of humans, is the more “predatory” you are inversely correlated with your other types of intellect
