Human Similar General Intelligence
The following is copied from Wiki Interview With Eliezer/Autonomous Intelligence:
Please describe the functionality and capabilities of a Human-Similar General Intelligence.
A Human-Similar General Intelligence should not lack any fundamental human cognitive processes. For example, it should not lack the ability to form memories, associate present experiences to memories, retrieve memories, and construct analogies using memories. A "near-human-level" GI may be weaker in these abilities but it will have these abilities. It may sound stupid in a conversation, but it will be able to have a conversation. It may not learn as fast as we do or as much as we do, but it will be able to learn. It may have to use long chains of reasoning to think about ideas that we can sum up in a single concept, but it will still have concepts, just less powerful ones. It may take it a couple of hours to think through something that we would be able to do in five seconds, although there will probably be less of that, because frustrated programmers will probably prefer a dumber mind running at a faster speed. So there are many ways in which a mind can be inferior to human and nonetheless be a complete mind.
