Reply to comment by Shadowwynd in Do all thinking creatures on Earth use neurons? Does an example of non-neuron based biological "intelligence" exist? by Wun_Weg_Wun_Dar__Wun
There are examples within our own bodies linked to, but distinct from the nervous system.
A jellyfish reactionary sting and a plant seeking sunlight are also a type of problem solving. Continuing to live always involves some type of problem solving. Reproduction solves the problem of continuing to exist in some form even after death. Evolution is problem solving. Is a "living planet" intelligent, or even alive at all? When a magma chamber is infiltrated by ground water and explodes into a volcano, is that pressure relief problem solving or just the net result of physics? Is intelligent thought also the net result of physics?
Given humans are intelligent, what is the smallest portion of a human that is still considered intelligent in its own right? Can it be neurons alone? If not, then you have an example of non-neuron biological "intelligence" in whatever else, besides neurons, is required.
Are we still intelligent while we are sleeping?
Prediction, without memory, can occur if the intelligence is built into the machine. https://www.youtube.com/@Wintergatan
A jellyfish probably isn't aware that its involuntary reaction predicts its survival.
Who or what built the intelligence into the jellyfish machine?
Where is there evidence of intelligence? In the blueprint.
