  • What makes you think that they are not smarter than humans?
    We haven’t been able to even communicate with Orca’s, so we can’t tell if they’d perform better on a math quiz.
    We do know that they have more neurons in their cerebrum than humans, which would potentially make them smarter.
    We know they have language, we know that they can pass on knowledge, we know that they communicate to each other to discuss hunting strategies, we know that they give names to each other, we know that some Orca’s have learned to communicate with other dolphin species, we know that they understand the concept of literally pointing out things, so they’re at least smarter than chimps.


  • I’d say there’s around 50% that either multiple large dolphin species, or more likely, just one dolphin species, being truly smarter than us and that’s the Orca. Orca’s are the only known species known to have more cerebrum neurons than human beings. They just don’t have any fingers, let alone opposable thumbs, and live in the ocean.
    There is a possibility however that Orca’s are still less smart than the average human for they could be using much of their brains to manage sleep as they can’t fall asleep like humans do or they’d drown.

    If we were be able to communicate with them, I would imagine them arguing for humans to turn their society into a more permanent matriarchy instead of the current human feminist ideal, through genetic engineering, specifically making human females a little bit taller, while arguing that the human males are fine in length, but should prefer giant women like a Greg Universe. And for the average desired human female length, seven or eight meters tall should be enough.

    Also, chimps are smarter than humans in one key area, which is short-term-memory.
    They can easily beat you in a game of memory without fail.
