ELI5:Why haven't other species evolved like humans and developed high intelligence? Will they ever?

Evolution has no goal other than what survives survives. Our intellect is a great tool for survival, but it also comes at great costs. Our big brains use a lot of energy, so we need more food than other animals. It also takes long for it to develop, meaning we are defenseless for several years, while other animals can pretty much walk instantly after birth. Our big heads also makes childbirth more dangerous.

So it require pretty special circumstances for being a bit smarter to become a evolutionary benefit. For most animals other factors determine their survival much more than how smart they are.

And will other animals eventually develop the same kind of intelligence? Maybe, but that probably requires us to go extinct first.
