Tiny fish pass the mirror test

from Intellectually Curious · host Mike Breault

Rethink self-awareness with a two-inch reef fish—the blue-streak cleaner wrasse. We unpack how mirror tests, contingency behaviors, and clever use of external objects are fueling a shift from a binary to a spectrum view of intelligence across species. Join us as we explore the latest findings and what they mean for measuring cognition in the wild.Note:  This podcast was AI-generated, and sometimes AI can make mistakes.  Please double-check any critical information.Sponsored by Embersilk LLC
