and depends on one's definition of intelligence. By the definition above, intelligence for the common good, individually, yes, sometimes. But as a species, absolutely not. We'll consume every resource until we crash and then flirt with extinction, just like any other species that expands beyond their environment's carrying capacity. We may just be a novel evolutionary experiment that turns out to be a dead end long term. A super tool maker. That's really all we are. But regardless of where Homo sapiens end up, biological life goes on because that's how our universe works.
