Well yeah, obviously, but personally I'm just as turned on by the drones, zerglings, etc.

I like the RTS genre for one reason and one reason only.

The Zerg are sexy.

Why do we need machines? Can't we just give her some food? "Hey momma octopus, have a Snicker's. You're not you when you're hungry."

Worth keeping in mind, though, teaching is a skill. I know lots of brilliant people who can't teach worth a damn. And humans are biologically hardwired for teaching. Imagine how hard teaching has got to be for an octopus.

Also we are familiar with informational structures - thinking machines - with a greater intelligence than their single biological components. For example, an ant hive. Each individual ant is a simple creature, programmed with instructions that allow a hive of ants to manage armies, roads, farms, nurseries, exploration, hunts, and war. Likewise, humans are able to come together and form communities, nations, corporations, and religions. Compound intelligences with a vast, inhuman intelligence.

I believe that if knowledge and awareness create consciousness, then human organisations must be conscious beings.
