So numbers are just symbols that've been given avalue and a scale, as the alphabat; Arabic dialects can be seen using our same alphabet mixed with numbers, which could be weird for us, but for Arabic speakers it makes sense since the numbers have other values (or maybe the same as from their language, can't remember). So pretty much we don't recognise numbers nor anything else because that's what they are, but because that's how they've been defined. And for the exercise, like mentioned before, the numbers could be replaced and mixed with other shapes and forms but that would make it harder for us hehe.

For me, it's easier to draw a path in my mind (kind of like connect the dots), then all you have to do is remember the shape of the path, and the end at which it starts. All you have to do at that point is follow the line, it's actually pretty simple.

They remember the numbers in order almost instantly, like an imprint on their mind, so yes... like photographic memory in some sense. They do have to be "trained" the rules of the game though... as in, playing the numbers in order, by giving them a reward for it... operant conditioning basically... but they already have the memory skills there, when they're in the wild...

  • The loss of advances short term memory cognitive abilities in favor of long term memory pattern recognition is an evolutionary leap towards higher intelligence. Short term memory is excellent for split decision survival skills, but in the long run it is humans long term memory cognitive reasoning that increases beyond the survival of here and now. To equate this evolutionary leap to chess it is the difference between being able to plan multiple moves into the future and memorizing the current position of all pieces on the chessboard. In evolutionary survival terms being able to plan moves into the future is far superior.

    • Jim Mason wrote a pretty amazing book on this phenomenon, entitled "An Unnatural Order". He explains the many theological and philosophical movements throughout human history that attempted to explain humans' place in relation to other animals, which now presently uphold this idea that humans' self-worth is dependent upon being better than all other animals of this planet. These philosophical ideas, despite their weaknesses, have endured hundreds and thousands of years by many people with ulterior motives and when those ideas are challenged today, many modern humans simply can't bear the idea of admitting that their most recent ancestors were duped by either humans with malicious intents or humans with a lack of knowledge. Instead of just admitting that human superiority is a myth and moving on with reality, they play the role of victim and lash out at nonhuman animals even more.

And yes they have much better short memory because in nature reaction and fast thinking make the difference between living and dying. For example falling of a tree and reacting fast enough to grab to something.

  • It's amazing that 1.) The chimp was able to learn the numbers 1-9 and their order in the first place and 2.) That the chimp can do this test almost instantaneously. I think a fair number of people with a reasonable memory can get it right 90% of the time as the chimp does but for me at least, it would take at least 10 seconds to feel confident enough to pass it at that rate. The chimp literally sees the numbers and starts pressing them immediately. I almost want to consider the possibility that the numbers are still visible to the chimp after he presses 1. Something similar like if you stare at an image for a long time then close your eyes, you still see the negative image. Meaning the chimp's eyes actually work a little differently and they still see the numbers after they flash off. Just complete speculation on my part and it's probably wrong but it's really astounding how quickly the chimp presses those numbers
