Well, given my interest in evolution, my guess is actually better then yours.  BUT allowing for basic "nothing to something" about evolution, the increase to intelligence is a more macro debate. 

I can sure say I have more neurons than the chimps, but that doesn't perforce prove why I am typing here and a chimp isn't.

Chimps could do better.  Humans are a proven failure.  Give another primate a chance.  Though I prefer bonobos.

What are you doing?
Are you taking any medications?
Don't do that.

We aren't "proven failures" until we actually blow up the entire Earth and all life with us.  Dang.  Now I feel responsible for "something".  I hope we get to Mars first.
Atheist born, atheist bred.  And when I die, atheist dead!

Optimists are the one's smoking in the arsenal.
