The amazing intelligence of crows

Hacker and writer Joshua Klein is fascinated by crows. And he has a reason to be so!

After a little chat at party about crows and how annoying they are to most people, he started wondering about if it might be possible to train these smart birds to do something actual useful for human beings.

After a long amateur study of corvid behavior, he's come up with an elegant machine that may form a new bond between animal and human.

An enjoyable speech and study. I had a blast watching it!
