Default Apes that write, start fires and play Pac-Man
This video was very interesting:

Savage-Rumbaugh's work with bonobo apes, which can understand spoken language and learn tasks by watching, forces the audience to rethink how much of what a species can do is determined by biology -- and how much by cultural exposure.

I live in Monterey where TED has all these get-togethers. It's fucking awesome. I went to a presentation in like 4th grade. Made a cannon out of liquid nitrogen and tennis balls.

This all sounds like a plot for a bad sci-fi movie but it will actually happen thousands of years from now
We're going to end up being overrun by lizard people and our only hope will to be to ally with the Bonobos.
