--- Quote from: Loki on 12 Jun 2013, 21:23 ---GM: wouldn't intelligence imply personality?
--- End quote ---

not necessarily. or at least, not necissarily one that we as primates would recognize.

if we assume an intelligent creature from a completely different evolutionary branch, with a completely different nervous system & brain structure, why would that intelligence or psychology in any way resemble our own?

Loki:
And now I feel stupid because I brought up the same "intelligence we would not recognize as such" in the discussion on AI religion  :roll:

Okay, but the way the question is worded seems to imply that you have to choose your action(s) already having the knowledge that the spider is intelligent?

WAYF:
Hannerdad is DEFINITELY a Space Wizard. Almost literally.

Hannelore loves reacting immediately, doesn't she? It's like an automatic panic mechanism: What is the fastest and most efficient way that this threat can be neutralized?
Considering her parentage, threats or things that make her uncomfortable would always have had a very fast, VERY efficient solution.

And sometimes it feels like she doesn't consider the fallout of the efficient methods, a la Mercenary Solutions:

Yes, that is a real cobalt blue tarantula.  And yes, that is its natural color.

That never crossed my mind until just now :psyduck:

And Hannderdad has a Rods from God system...God help us.

And here she didn't run screaming from the store or go catatonic.  Either she had a dose of medication recently, or her mellowing out has reached a new stage.
