Recognizing Consciousness and Learning from Otherness
In this chapter, they discuss the possibility of recognizing another consciousness and how it could help us learn more about ourselves. They use the example of how writing was initially thought to destroy storytelling, but instead it dramatically changed it without harming the art form. They also mention a video of an octopus in a laboratory that cleverly figures out how to escape and go back into the water.
