- uwiiuvvwu 10y agotrue, it's the result of an optimization process, but intelligence itself (whatever it is...it's a suitcase-term) isn't as simple as that. Or maybe it is, I don't know!
- pekk 10y ago"Optimization" describes the result, not the implementation. Unless you consider intelligence to be average-suboptimal, it's entirely reasonable to say that it's about optimization without committing you to any claim about how intelligence is implemented.
