TRIZ-Ingenieur comments on Superintelligence 5: Forms of Superintelligence

[TRIZ-Ingenieur]

Intelligence is the ability to achieve complex goals in complex environments.

The greater the total complexity of the set of goals that the organism can achieve, the more intelligent it is.

Goertzel 2006, p43

Bostrum unsatisfactorily defines quality superintelligence in a self referencing circle by vastly qualitatively smarter (p56). It would have been better to name the ability to solve problems of vastly higher complexity.

Intelligence of higher generality covers more domains.
