Sidestepping the fact that memory is hardly a test of intelligence, are you telling me that humans with anterograde amnesia are not general intelligences ?

Hell plenty normal people would fail your "test"

The poster was very probably implying something different:

in our terms, intelligence is (importantly) the ability to (properly) refine a world model: if you get information but said model remains unchanged, then intelligence is faulty.

> humans

There is a difference between the implementation of intelligence and the emulation of humans (which do not always use the faculty, and may use its opposite).

Needs a few more constraints, otherwise someone could just maintain a session for a week and this task would be trivial

Sure, point is, we could easily design A test that 5th graders could pass that GPT4 as it is today would fail.

I said design an intelligence test that a good chunck of humans wouldn't also fail.

I'm sorry to tell you this but there are many humans that would fail your test. Even otherwise healthy humans could fail your test nevermind Anterograde Amnesia, Dementia etc patients

You think that if we told the average fifth grader in america that they must remember something that is VERY IMPORTANT a week later, and then had them do, say, a book report on a brand new book, and then asked them the very important fact, a 'good chunk' would fail?

I'm fairly certain you're incorrect.

Lol yes. People will fail. Any amoumt is enough to show your test is clearly not one of general intelligence unless you believe not all humans fit the bill.

Which one was meant to fail that test — the squishy blob of warm chemistry, or the almost atomically precise 2D crystal with tiny etchings on it?
