> Granted, I am more skilled at achieving instrumental goals under more varied set of conditions. Then we are in agreement. This statement is right around the threshold where we can take this discussion before coming to metaphysics territory. My argument was simply this: the AI technology we have now is much closer to simpler "mindless" models, like Linear Programming or inference statistics models, than to general human intelligence. Calling your model "goal-oriented" or saying that an AI system can, say, "see dogs in a photo" is simply an anthropomorphization.
