I am reminded of this scene from Portal 2: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JR4H76SCCzY The difference between computation and intelligence is interesting from both a practical and a philosophical perspective. It is not at all clear why a person is intelligent and a storm is not. If not quite a paradox, it is certainly a conundrum. Wolfram tries to short-circuit this by claiming storms are intelligent, which is so plainly ludicrous to not even be worth discussing. He solves the conundrum by replacing it with a falsehood. "I don't know what makes people intelligent" may not be a satisfying conclusion, but it is a true one. "Storms are intelligent" is wrong. "People are not intelligent" is also wrong. |
