trickery aside, Hans was clearly intelligent by several metrics. mathematics are not the sole domain.
- PaulDavisThe1st 4y agowhere do you see any suggestion that Hans lacked all intelligence?
- LesZedCB 4y ago"Intelligence Misattribution" right in the title. either it's clearly a gradient/spectrum, or this article isn't making the solid argument it might seem to be.
- PaulDavisThe1st 4y agono, it's not a gradient/spectrum. The HN title is just missing extra words, like "Mathematical". Nobody said that Hans had no intelligence, the point is that Hans doesn't have the kind of intelligence that was being attributed to him from the arithmetic demonstrations.
