It wasn't a full specturm IQ test, but some random mensa test that looks like the online 'test your IQ' nonsense. And the software was given precise written descriptions of the visual questions after performing too poorly otherwise. This completely removes the element of visual-spatial understanding that the questions are testing to begin with! But I think there's also a more salient point. Correlated abilities mean different things for different groups. The ability to do simple math rapidly is generally going to correlate with intelligence for a human. That doesn't mean a calculator, which can do simple math millions of times faster than the fastest human, is thus millions of times more intelligent.
