Read what I wrote. Machine intelligence is not a question of

It is a question of exploration of some reality, and it is a
question of us being sufficiently inetlligent to recognize
intelligence here and there along that exploration.
Are you saying we cannot build an intelligent machine?
Not provably so, unless you agree or bet, or consider, that universal
machine, or Löbian machine, are already intelligent. But that
intelligence is more discovered (in arithmetic) than a human
construction per se, imo.
Or are you saying we can only build a machine capable of learning to
be intelligent?
Yes, like in nature. The more a species is clever, the less the infant
brain is hardwired, and the longer his learning period (infancy)
appears to be. I see intelligence as an ability to learn and to change
our mind. Adult is the phase when we apply "stupidly" the intelligence
that we might have developed in the childhood.
Childhood is when you are incompetent and intelligent. Adulthood is
when you become competent and stupid, so to speak.
