Keep in mind that time the Jetsons met the Flintstones? Indeed, we have for you today a scientific finding that joins future technology with antiquated human evolution. Artificial intelligence consciousness found an entirely different hominoid species.
Scientists from Estonia and Spain utilized deep learning to assemble a model for human evolution. They definitely knew Neanderthals and Denisovan reproduced with humans, yet their programs uncovered something new: a third species that joined the hominoid party.
We expounded on how somebody found a child with a Denisovan father and Neanderthal mother. Obviously, this was no exemption. There was a whole species of part Denisovian, part Neanderthal folks. Furthermore, this species reared with Homo sapiens — that is us.
Or then again is it? at this point, I’d normally call attention to that we are Homo sapiens. Yet, as indicated by this finding, that is not exactly true. We’re somewhat of a blend of these three species (however truly, our DNA is considerably more Homo sapien than Neanderthal or Denisovan).
“About 80,000 years ago, the so-called Out of Africa occurred, when part of the human population, which already consisted of modern humans, abandoned the African continent and migrated to other continents, giving rise to all the current populations,” said Jaume Bertranpetit, an Institute of Evolutionary Biology researcher who worked on the study. “We know that from that time on wards, modern humans cross bred with Neanderthals in all the continents, except Africa, with the Denisovans in Oceania and probably in South-East Asia, although the evidence of cross-breeding with a third extinct species had not been confirmed with any certainty.”
I some of the time ponder what the world would be like if there were as still a bunch of different hominoid species on the planet. I suspect humans would have a tougher time drawing such a thick line between themselves and other animals.
