Sometimes allegedly conscious beings behave very unintelligently. However using Bruno's
distinction intelligent behaviour is conscious (goal directed etc) but competent
behaviour isn't.
So we have 3 classes of being
1 conscious
2 intelligent
3 competent
2 inplies 1 but 1 doesn't imply 2 so 1 is wider than 2. 3 isexclusive from 1
and 2.
But how then to distinguish competence from intelligence?
One way is to equate intelligence with an ability to learn, to expand the field of
competence. So Deep Blue is competent at chess but not very intelligent.
