We've known for years that flies are able to make decisions based on context, and Chimps can beat humans in at least one game of strategy, outright predicting the other's moves better, consistently. I know this isn't super common knowledge to laymen, but a lot of the things you think are "just human" exist in other animals too.
Not many chimps building skyscrapers and LEO space stations mate.
