:) Intelligence isn't limited to "higher cognitive functions". One could say a virus is intelligent or alive because it can replicate itself.
Intelligence is not just one function or ability, it can be many different things. But mostly, for us, it comes down to what the system can accomplish for us. As for the turing test, it is basically worthless in my opinion. PS: you probably should post these video posts to a single thread...
