JFC, I hadn't bothered to do anything except for a cursory read of the "Sparks of Artificial General Intelligence" paper so I hadn't spotted the fact that they based their definition of intelligence on the "Mainstream Science on Intelligence" statement! 🤯 😨 😱
Yeah, the "Bell Curve" supporting, all-in-on-racism, white-supremacy funded, pseudo-scientific statement on intelligence that absolutely is not a research paper, study or thesis was their preferred definition of intelligence for the paper
@dogfox @baldur While the Star Trek episode is coincidentally apropos (and one of my favorites), I was referring to the book on the intertwined history of ideas about race and intelligence by evolutionary biologist Stephen Jay Gould.

@internic Yeah, definitely.
