I agree. General intelligence, to me, is defined as the ability to create a greater intelligence. An ability that's hypothesized for humans, but yet unproven. Therefore, on the cusp of general intelligence.
- dvanduzer 11y agoGeneral intelligence does seem to be non-orthogonal to strategic thinking. (The nuance is what Yudkowsky et al. tend to write about.) second edit: "Can we actually change that en masse?" is the most interesting question.
- tbrownaw 11y agoGeneral intelligence, to me, is defined as the ability to create a greater intelligence. Define "greater". And since your definition is recursive, define your base case. I'll suggest that "intelligence" is about how much information you can extract from a given set of data. And since information theory says any given set of data only has a limited amount of information in it, this would imply that "intelligence" is not potentially unbounded but is on a scale of 0%-100%.
