intellegence of other species.

So there is still the possibility that cephalpods could potentially become as intelligent as humans?

Another way to think of it is that our definition of intelligence is based on our own. In that light every other species are unintelligent of course, since we're judging them by human merits. But there's a number of things that animals do way better than us! For example, pigeons solve Monty Hall problem better than humans. Also, dolphins seem to be talking to each other with stereo images, which is a bit like their own underwater internet.

Besides, we all know that mankind is only third on Earth as far as intelligence goes:)

Womankind and who else?

But we would have to give them a while. I mean they should have first change their reproductive strategy (no dying after reproduction and move towards K-strategy with only few offspring) and have much more extended lifespan, allowing to bring up their young.

They would also have to become a more social animal.

After that they should evolve brainy squids ;)
