The term AI in itself is problematic since no one really knows what intelligence is or how to measure it.
Interesting ideas. Thanks for posting.

I think intelligence is not too difficult to define. IQ tests are fairly good at determining intelligence with spacial, verbal and other types of intelligence.
The word "intelligence" has tended to stray at times from what IQ tests were created for, such as "emotional intelligence".
The thing that is difficult to define is consciousness.

And as you say, they measure only certain types of intelligence.
That said, if you've never been to school you'd fail such a test miserably, but that does't mean you're not intelligent just that you're not learned.
Anyway, researchers already created a program that made a computer score 150 on an IQ test and guess what, that computer was nowhere near intelligent.
Not intelligent in that you can have even the most basic conversation with it.
It would probably overflow at "Nice weather, eh?"
It also couldn't walk the stairs or play Super Mario (we have other computers doing ML to learn Super Mario).
Wikipedia says the following: "Intelligence has been defined in many ways, including: the capacity for logic, understanding, self-awareness, learning, emotional knowledge, reasoning, planning, creativity, critical thinking, and problem solving."
That's a lot more than an IQ test covers and most of it is completely impossible for computers at this time (if ever).
But that was exactly my point, there is no clear definition of intelligence and it's certainly not "being able to fill out an IQ test."

Human learning is exactly the same... how do you think that babys learn?
Not even the "genius" are born knowing everything or always do all perfectly at the first try. They do test and error too, just learn faster from it than others.
Without test-and-error would be no new creations in most of the fields.

As I was sitting in my car at lunch yesterday and watching a small spider fix a web that a passing wasp had just broken I did think "I doubt it's mother taught it how to build such an amazing web".
There are some innate abilities, which while they improve with learning, do seem to be there from evolution.

I can read your comment and interpret them as not only words in a random order.
I know them to have meaning and I can form an opinion about it.
In fact, we can create new words or bend the rules of language and we still know what we mean.
"I dictionaried the hell out of that word."
A computer can tell me "dictionaried" is not a word, but a human understands I looked up the word in a dictionary and quite aggressively too.
You've never ever seen or heard the word "dictionaried", so how is it then that you still understand?
The first time I played Super Mario I knew exactly what to do... Get guy from left to right while evading obstacles.
I had never even seen a game before.
It takes a computer hours to learn this and it probably doesn't even understand what it does.
It's a bit more than ML (or HL) methinks.

Hmmm,
For only $5,695.00 this Cheezburger can be yours. Looks like it would make a great cat food bowl.

I wear button-down shirts, as a rule. The only T-shirts I own are those given out at company events.
(I still have one handed out by Microsoft when .NET 1.1 was announced)

I don't visit enough events
I used to have a good one by DevExpress (what I actually used at the time), it said "eat sleep code" including symbols
Some kid in Africa is now probably wearing it.

That's why I hunt down clean shirts only, and buying them by dozen...

About fourtyfive years ago, I went though much of the North-Eastern US on a camping trip with my very hot looking Irish (decent) girlfriend.
After forty-five years, she's the grandmother of my grandchildren - we're still together, still lovers, and Vermont is still beautiful.
When they come your way, never miss a chance to savor those "life is beautiful" moments.

I was just thinking about it - how busy we get and how easy it is to put off doing things that invite these moments . . . and now I wonder "Why?".

Congratulations,
According to the Census Bureau only 6% of Americans pass the 50th (Golden) wedding anniversary. My grandparents on my mothers side (born in 1906 and 1908 respectively) reached their Diamond anniversary.

Hooray for longevity! My parents are at 54 years and I've been lucky the wife has stuck around for 31.
Congratulations.
