Or could we breed them for intelligence...? With such short periods between generations, we could reach superintelligence, maybe faster than other methods!
What could go wrong with breeding a species that hunts their own as prey as a superintelligence?
This thread is for asking any questions that might seem obvious, tangential, silly or what-have-you. Don't be shy, everyone has holes in their knowledge, though the fewer and the smaller we can make them, the better.
Please be respectful of other people's admitting ignorance and don't mock them for it, as they're doing a noble thing.
To any future monthly posters of SQ threads, please remember to add the "stupid_questions" tag.
