> I think the bar for recognizing intelligence in general has been set too low. I think that the problem is not being too low, but being not very clearly defined, and by assuming that you can just be quantified by numbers; I think that intelligence (and consciousness) cannot be properly quantified by numbers. > What is consciousness? I don't think we're any closer to rigorously defining that anymore than intelligence. It is a valid point. You will have to define such things clearly in order to know them scientifically, properly.
