Because those aren't Intelligent, they are just "handy". Sorting doesn't require intelligence. You have X number of attributes and using them you do your best

Because those aren't Intelligent, they are just "handy".
Sorting doesn't require intelligence. You have X number of attributes and using them you do your best to get as many things in to "Like" buckets as possible.
Discovering new attributes is the start of intelligence. Discovering new buckets could be intelligence.
If the machine gets 100k pictures and can sort them in to Cat vs No Cat, and then suggests a new set of classification "Indoors vs outdoors" using attributes the developer didn't pre-identify that would be intelligence.

- drakaal 13y agoYou don't seem to want to have a discussion. So this is my last comment. It was given all the possible traits. It didn't find a new category it had a collection of things with known traits. Google knew it would be able to find cats using the traits it was given. That's not intelligence on the computer's side. If I tell you that there are things with lungs, things with gills, things with legs and things with arms, things with hair, I don't have to tell you there are mermaids and salamanders, you will figure it out when not everything fits in the bucket of Cats and goldfish.
