I liked the article. I think it is interesting/telling that a lot of the article is focused on defining distinctions in all the definitions that about for general intelligence -- we don't even really know or at least agree upon what the problem is in the first place, let alone how to solve it. But Iiked that catchall definition that appears early on. There are a couple of typos (I will reread this soon and correct if I get around to it.) Also, perhaps the present limitations of AGI could be moved up somewhere near the top since so many people seem to be fearful of AGI. Mike A
