They survived the K-T extiction event ir K-Pg event which killed perhaps 75% of species in earth 66 milliin years ago.
While we are already causing an extinction event which will probably far worse, by causing temperatures to rise to a level higher than in hundreds of millions of years. And I am not so sure that we survive that in the long run. Humans are incredibly adaptable, that’s right. But our food sources are not, and the great mayority of them (except perhaps algae and mushrooms) are far younger in an evolutionary sense, so it is unlikely they can adapt.

That’s what the octopodes want you to think.
