Pyro is probably some experimental government R&D AI.

But I suppose you'd thoroughly enjoy the tongue lashing you are going to have as soon as I return.

I fully support the infrared artic laser vision idea, also I think we need sonic torpedos! (todo list perhaps?

><"

I ask for infrared vision, and tentacles able to emit infrared light (heat) in recognisable patterns (like a crude communication system), to share knowledge with future members of our species.
Put one tentacle out of the hole, filled with enzyms, and emit irregularly, like in "hey little fishy! look at this bright little worm! wanna taste?"

Y'know the plus side of infrared? Other things can't see it. So you can illuminate things with it and all they think is that they are still in pitch darkness. Look up the Stoplight Loosejaw (my favorite fish!).

By this, I mean that you're going to have to have a separate kind of light (not infrared) if you want to use it as bait.

Unless they can see infrared as well. In which case we have something else to worry about.
I ask for infrared-vision as well as waterjets, which we might both use as proulsion and to spray acid on unsuspecting victims.
Also, maybe we should look for some kind of  photosynthetic organism which we could eat and whose chloroplast we could use.

A light-based source of energy?

Some jellyfish do it.
