Humans have bred dogs from wolves. There are some dogs that have language and problem solving skills that are comparable with human children. They also have a friendly attitude to humans. Dogs are our first AI. An uplifted animal is another way AI can happen.
Direct brain to brain communication migh produce a meta-consciousness not found in the original brains.
I do remember reading that domesticated dogs have less intelligence than wolves. According to whatever tests they use to measure animal intelligence. However dogs are better at understanding cues given by humans. Not necessarily at the level of human children though.
How? We already have brain to brain communication, and it's called language.
And the meta-consciousness is called culture.
