yea, I agree w&#x2F; a lot of this, esp. the stuff a&#x2F;b the importance of context.<p>the context of the article for me is that it&#x27;s from a cs dept, yet the researchers ran some cog-sci -like experiments w&#x2F; humans, and I thought that, as a methodology, is something interesting and valuable.  a lot of cs ppl will say flat out that they&#x27;ve intentionally put blinders on re results about the human mind &#x2F; brain, which makes sense on one level b&#x2F;c it&#x27;s a lot to think a&#x2F;b.  OTOH, how does one even define intelligence w&#x2F;o biology? like, to say &quot;intelligence is what ppl do&quot; means you need to know, quantifiably, what that is, even if you don&#x27;t care how it&#x27;s implemented.<p>now, it&#x27;s generally understood, and I think this is your critique if any, that we&#x27;re a long way from answering such questions.  one should take most descriptions of human behavior as rough, first-order approximations.
