Have any animals come even close to any of the achievements we have accomplished? No. They haven't. We are special because we have accomplished things other animals haven't even come near to accomplishing. We aren't gods, but to those animals we basically are.

Just because we are the first hyper intelligent animals doesn't mean we'll be the last.

I never said we will be the only ones ever to accomplish things. I did hear a "first" and a "hyper intelligent" out of you though. Doesn't that make us special? Should something else intelligent begin to rise right now, we have quite a few years on them. It's a massive advantage and I would argue hyper intelligence in itself is quite special.

It's only as special as any other animal that has been more intelligent than another through time. Take away all that we've built and on a technical level, there is very little separating us from chimps

Agree, humans are just smarter animals
