Ex-Google executive Mo Gawdat defines Intelligence.
“If we accept that intelligence itself is not a physical property, then it does not matter whether that intelligence is produced on carbon-based computer structures like humans, silicon-based computer structures like today’s hardware running AI, or quantum-based computer structures in the future.
Intelligence is produced within machines when we stop imposing our own intelligence on them.“
