How would the world be different if plants evolved for sentience but animals (including humans) didn’t?
>>5157363fuck are they gonna do with it, get PTSD after a deer ate its family?
>>5157363if plants were smart they'd evolve into animals.
>>5157363well using ourselves as an (the only) example, sentience is very calorie intensive and i just don't see how you're going to get all you need staying rooted in one place
>>5157363>>5157376They would have to be very widely distributed, and perhaps not have the sentience be restricted to a single member of the species, or even biome.https://mothertreeproject.org/about-mother-trees/Linking only to show a hypothetical setup, please dont take this as a claim of plant sentience, or even an endorsement of the site.
>>5157363I wonder how they'd influx on the environment. If they could control what they produced do you think they could form symbiotic relations or train animals to do what they want.
