But surely a general intelligence would recognize that maximizing short term profit at the expense of long term profits has its own set of trade offs. And indeed, that common sense or “je ne sais quoi” would also reasonably indicate general intelligence. I think the “running a corporation” problem is actually a great example of how to measure a general intelligence not only because it has well defined success criteria but also because of the very open ended and general means by which it must be accomplished. Running a corporation requires communication, setting goals, creativity, number crunching, and lots of soft skills like branding or understanding how consumers/customers will react to things. But there is nothing uniquely human about it except that it needs to be able to make money from humans. Presumably if I’m paying for some well defined service like Search Ads I don’t particularly care if the corporation is run by a robot. I do agree though that there is a bit of ambiguity here on what “run a corporation” means. I assume that with a lot of thought I could write a very procedural script that somehow incorporates, purchases a property, and rents it through a property management group.
