Intelligence Hasn't Been Solved
In public discourse, intelligence is often talked about as if it is a solved problem. Claims on the part of the big players in the space to the effect that their chatbots have Ph.D. level intelligence or that AGI is within reach obviously only further this idea.
But what should we believe?
Do we have an agreed upon definition that we can just hold any candidate AI up against or that could be made the foundation of a test of its ability? Indeed, even supposing that we had and could, should we? Turing famously introduced his imitation game to circumvent the problems that defining intelligence comes with, specifically the fear that it might ultimately just reflect our own conceptual limitations and anthropocentric biases about what constitutes genuine understanding.
