Then the Turing Test works for consciousness and not just for intelligence. But then you don't believe the Turing Test even works for intelligence because you believe that the ability to do intelligent things has nothing to do with being intelligent, an idea so breathtakingly silly nobody would dream of uttering it unless they were driven to do so by their fear of intelligent machines. I guess "competent machines" sounds less threatening to you. John K Clark -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Everything List" group.
