For me, working meaning of consciousness is reflection, or a process of memory-formation about the processes going in the mind, which is the same thing as learning, since any kind of external information must first set in motion a process in the mind in order to be perceived. By intelligence, to separate it from knowledge, I understand the efficiency of learning. Thus, it can be said that in my definitions intelligence is a property of consciousness, but it's really unnecessarily confusing to use these way overloaded terms, and it's almost meaningless to use them without clarification of what's meant in a particular case. -- Vladimir Nesov [EMAIL PROTECTED] ------------------------------------------- agi Archives: http://www.listbox.com/member/archive/303/=now RSS Feed: http://www.listbox.com/member/archive/rss/303/ Modify Your Subscription: http://www.listbox.com/member/?member_id=8660244&id_secret=103754539-40ed26 Powered by Listbox: http://www.listbox.com
