 The article discusses how scientists have discovered that octopuses can move their arms without using their brains, and instead use a decentralized system where each arm has its own "mini-brain" that can control movement independently. This allows them to perform complex movements without needing to think about every step. The researchers used a combination of behavioral experiments and computer simulations to understand how this decentralized system works. They found that the octopus's arms are able to move in a coordinated way even when they are not directly connected to the brain, suggesting that there is a high degree of autonomy in each arm. The study could lead to new insights into the evolution of intelligence and the development of soft robotics.
