Don't confuse the movement with the control of the movement. We can build machines that move much better than any animal, especially at certain scales and by certain measures. A clockwork automaton really does move, it makes no sense to say it's not true motion because it is dead. If you need something moved, you move it yourself, you use an animal, or you use a machine. Machines generally move more. Someday machines will be generally more intelligent. I'm not sure what you are talking about when you say intelligence. http://lesswrong.com/lw/tx/optimization/ http://lesswrong.com/lw/tx/optimization/ >Only GOD can create people. Many theists would say only god can create life, which is what you propose, yes? They are wrong for much the same reasons you are. Evolution has little to no 'intelligence' depending on how you measure it, and yet it produced life and intelligence. We should be able to create much more powerful intelligent machine, just as we have created much stronger machines.
