Great read.

The phenomena is also starting to be referred to as NHI - nonhuman intelligence.

Thank you. NHI sounds more relatable — and inclusive. Plus it leaves open the possibility of A.I., as well as “biological.”

ETA: Stanislaw Lem wondered if cyborgs not too far in the future would argue between themselves if they were descended from humans? “Yuch!” they all said, shuddering at the thought.
