No, it's harder because you can tell when you've failed.
I guess you meant "it's harder because you CAN'T tell when you've failed."
No, I meant the "easy problem" is harder because you can tell when you've failed to
explain intelligence: You use your hypothetical explanation to make something that should
be intelligent. When it acts stupid, you've failed.

But this is theory dependent. With comp + classical theory of knowledge (recover by
Theatetus applied on Gödel's beweisbar arithmetical predicate) you get a whole theory of
qualia+quanta. Evidences from empirical quanta on it does give evidence on the theory of
qualia (the hard problem), and refutation by quanta refute automatically the qualia
theory, and so it can be shown wrong.
