I think that figuring out a good working definition of general intelligence and demonstratable intermediate steps is the single most important missing piece of the endeavor.
What perplexes me is why so many people seem to hold this opinion ;-) Of course, demonstrable intermediate steps are great, but why would you consider that a prerequisite? What is the demonstrable intermediate step to making an airplane? Or an explosive device? You can't define any such intermediate steps that will robustly apply to any plausible approach...
