how do we prove humans are sentient even
^
[ok, i just read about this this morning in Scientific American..]
Animals are sentient. What I meant was sapient.
My bad.
gray -prove it
I can't say it for sure, but I imagine it'd be quite uncomfortable having that much movement oriented hardware and speed and not use it.
either way even if animals were sentient, i still think its way okay to kill hem for food
If I was a centaur I'd probably run for the fuck of it.
yeah sure, no argument there i'd suppose ?
Imagine it.
Running at 45 mph
@Ivan_M II "i can run at 40mph fuck yeah"
It cant be "proven", but there is a lot of evidence to suggest that animals have complex emotions and some have complex social interactions and awareness of self as well.
Exactly
walk at 40mph*
You can't prove other humans are sapient either though.
tbf
They can feel pain, but does that mean they have a consciousness or does it simply mean they have a neural centre?
what even is sentience
It's a big philosophical problem.
Horses are one of few creatures that match human endurance levels. To have that on my side with the power of the human mind.
sentience is definded as being able to percieve your surroundings. Sapience is defined as being aware of yourself.
h
being sentient is not even clear, so its hard to define what's and whats not
oh
in french is way mroe anbiguous
I guess what I'm getting at is that being a centaur would be pretty fucking ideal for the /k/ side of my life
I think. Let me fact check that shit.
no, it is to do something subjectively @Gray
sentience
I'm unsure of sapience
H
h?
alternatively H
Oh boy everyone getting philosophical on me and I'm just thinking about how cool it would be to go innawoods as a centaur.
