For humans, cleverness and intelligence are correlated; for machines they are largely decoupled, and today's tools are best viewed as stochastic generators of sometimes-clever, often-useful outputs — which yields the characteristic "useful yet unsatisfying" feeling of a magic trick once explained. He resists a one-dimensional picture entirely: the space of cognitive tasks is extremely high-dimensional, so no "sub-human to super-human" scale captures it, and the frontier that still eludes machines is data-scarce reasoning — extrapolating from five or six facts and a vague analogy, exactly where human mathematicians excel.
