Am vazut pe EuroNews dar si pe web experientele japoneze de comparare a
capacitatii cimpanzeilor tineri si a studentilor (oameni :), de memorare a
pozitiei cifrelor pe un monitor. Este amuzant sa vezi cat de rapide sunt
miscarile, cat de buna este performanta rudelor noastre apropiate. Faptul ca
fizic este mai puternic decat un om este de inteles, dar faptul ca retine mai
bine pozitia acelor cifre pe monitor... :) cam penibil ... pentru 'dasteptul'
de om.

Japanese researchers pitted young chimps against human adults in two tests of
short-term memory, and overall, the chimps won. That challenges the belief of
many people, including many scientists, that "humans are superior to
chimpanzees in all cognitive functions," said researcher Tetsuro Matsuzawa of
Kyoto University. "No one can imagine that chimpanzees young chimpanzees at
the age of 5 have a better performance in a memory task than humans," he said
in a statement.
