I don't see Matt's "many worlds" view as incompatible with associating consciousness with intelligence in the slightest. As for myself, I go beyond that to see free will as an inevitable attribute of the existence of consciousness. Of course, this gets into definitions wars which are ultimately fruitless without recognizing them as such, as did Shane Legg, so productively, in his PhD thesis. I don't really like arguing with people in these areas when what is really needed is a Rosetta Table between glossaries before dialogue is meaningful.
