[comp.ai] How about this working definition of intelligence.

Intelligence: able to purchase a computer running UN*X and (with
recourse only to the system manuals) register a productivity increase
in six months' time.



Yes, that was a (weak) attempt at humor.

On a serious note, I think any attempt to define intelligence is futile
as long as we do not know how to define complexity.
