タコとイカ 異質な知性と体に秘められた謎|ガリレオX第228回

2020 Broadcast Programs From takoyaki and squid noodles to footage of giant squids and Katsushika Hokusai's shunga (shunga) "The Octopus and the Diver," octopuses and squids have long fascinated us. Despite being invertebrates, octopuses and squids possess unusually high information processing capabilities thanks to their enormous brains and sophisticated nervous systems, leading some to speculate that they may actually be creatures from outer space. Years of captive observation and genome sequencing have revealed that octopuses and squids possess what could be called "intelligence" completely different from that of primates. Meanwhile, focusing on the flexible yet efficient movement of octopus arms, researchers are researching silicon octopus-arm computers capable of performing complex and specialized calculations at high speeds. This research aims to utilize the inherent physical movements implemented in the body structures of diverse organisms as a computational mechanism. This program delves into the mysteries of the extraordinary intelligence and bodies of octopuses and squids, and their potential applications.
