Another thread recently discussed Legg's 2007 definition of
intelligence - i.e.
"Intelligence measures an agent’s ability to achieve goals in a wide
range of environments".
I have never been able to swallow this proposed definition because
I think it leaves out something important, namely: the idea that
intelligence is a psychological attribute.
I should perhaps add, that this alleged defect also applies
to Legg's formalized version, not just his hand-wavey one.
I.e. in a sequence predictor, we can ask whether an agent's
intelligence is affected by whether they receive a delayed
stream of the sequence they are being asked to predict -
latency being a type of sensory defect. Legg's proposed
definition of intelligence proposes that such a delay would
adversely affects an agent's intelligence in a wide range of
environments, whereas to me it seems like an attribute of their
sensory array, not their intelligence - which should be a
measure of their cognitive abilities.
