For proving theorems, there is nothing wrong with it. For example, we
can prove that a general solution is not computable. We can prove that
good solutions must have high algorithmic complexity. It puts to rest
the "neat" vs. "scruffy" debate. AGI is not like physics. It's long,
hard, slow, expensive work, not an equation.

For practical purposes, "intelligence" is not really the problem we
want to solve. The problem we want to solve is automating human labor.
It requires solving hard problems like vision, natural language,
robotics, art, and modeling human behavior. We want machines to
understand what we want and do it, not to outsmart us.
