I think he's just been going from milder to more intense shrooms.

Actual photo of the batshit crazy dude:

Oh fuck I caught some of his shrooms,

You predominantly persist in the expression of nonsensical anecdotes.
Have you not any scientific awareness?

Incorrect.

You look more cool than batshit crazy, which is epic.

Interesting expression on your face, lol.

It's rather confusing when you criticize my posts but still give me kudos, Jordan lol. It's like those trolls who kudos me when I think they're funny. JbrentonK (is he your cousin?) does the same. Lol.

I simply attribute kudos betwixt:
[0] Commentaries that garner my amusement.
and or
[1] Recognition of minimal effort. (whence commentaries surpass sub-par quintessential thread-response sequences)

I recently read a book on AI and it said that we have yet to produce anything as intelligent as the insect. I am not very knowledable on this subject but this does not merit god status to me. Nature does a much better job with random mutation and natural selection.

Albeit, artificial brain based models have already exceeded/equaled human intelligence, amidst non-trivial, cognitive tasks, ranging from language translation to disease diagnosis.

See skype, earbud translators, watson....

Apparently not as intelligent as insects , regardless !

No, actually I don't. But I guess you're entitled to your opinion, which is honestly, all you have in this thread.

The insect scenario you recall,  dithers particularly on the horizon of hardware replication.

The paths via machine learning faces:

'A' Hardware replication. [From  C. elegans worm neuronal replication, to Henry Markram's mammalian brain constructs]

'B' Theory-bound compactions of neuronal cognition [Deep Neural Networks-aligned models, Convolutional Neural Networks, Recurrent Neural Networks, Long Short Term Memory, Deep Reinforcement Learning that utilizes Deep Neural Nets...]


Therein:

[0] - 'A' is but entirely non-human surpassing. [approximates worms, partial mammalian brain as observed in 'A']
and

[1] 'B' has already produced models that exceed human performance, in cognitive, non trivial tasks. [Although the human brain oscillates abound higher efficiencies entirely, brain based models excel in individual tasks/task groups as observed in 'B'.

Invalid.

...for these models have exceeded/equaled human performance, in non-trivial COGNITIVE TASKS, including language translation to disease diagnosis.


Cognitive Samples of human-performance intelligence surpassing instances:

Skype - translates 40+ languages using neural models
Watson - exceeded two best jeopardy players, diagnoses diseases better than human doctors
Earbud Translator - translates languages, using neural models
etc


Separately, chess is trivially solvable by non-neural software.
