The AI Effect

Tesler was also known from the so-called 'AI Effect', which he formulated as follows:

"“Intelligence is whatever machines haven't done yet”. Many people define humanity partly by our allegedly unique intelligence. Whatever a machine—or an animal—can do must (those people say) be something other than intelligence."

Very sad to hear that he has passed away.
