> Being able to compress well is closely related to intelligence as explained below. While intelligence is a slippery concept, file sizes are hard numbers. Wikipedia is an extensive snapshot of Human Knowledge. If you can compress the first 1GB of Wikipedia better than your predecessors, your (de)compressor likely has to be smart(er). The intention of this prize is to encourage development of intelligent compressors/programs as a path to AGI.

okay, but why post that as a reply to a complaint about how GPUs can't be used and how an "i7" is not one specific CPU? You almost certainly wanted to just post that as its own comment instead of a reply to anyone.
