mircea_popescu: if one is purportedly intelligent, how is it then that his brain does not work intelligently ?
mircea_popescu: but that's not where the problem lies. the problem lies at the spot where you propose there exists an "intelligence" that nevertheless does not have control of the processor.
mircea_popescu: me ? you're the one to fire. you proposed pink shapeless.
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform you ready for the will/intelligence discussion ?
mircea_popescu: i don't expect technologee changed these much since the 90s
