Let us forget for a moment machines and take for example some other

the behaviour of insects? Is it intelligent or not?
Yes, I would say that insects have a limited intelligence. Why not?
And I imagine they also have a limited consciousness.
That's my personal feeling too. Recently I have updated the arachnid
an octopus in the Löbian (self-conscious) class of entity.
I came to that possible conclusion by looking at video like this, and
then making some experiment with spider myself:

It is not the move the spider, but its apparent induction that there
is a spider behind the mirror, and its apparent shock discovering
there is none.
Take this with some grain on salt, but in matter of consciousness I
prefer to attribute too much than not enough.
