Thought you guys would be interested. I even stopped lurking just to post this. I debated about where to put it for awhile—psychology? But I felt that it would be more relevant here, for the type of discussion involved.

The .pdf is a rigorous summary of how we define intelligence, and how we measure it. Also, how we may be wrong, and where our boundaries are.

Could you give a small summary of what you are proposing me to read? I find it somewhat alien to be given a link that "I might be interested in" from a person that neither knows me nor tells me why I might be interested.

 

EDIT: your reply below is perhaps a bit shorter than the average summary I am used to, but still "thank you".

It's a summary of intelligence definitions and metrics, and a damn good one, if I may say so myself. It very rigorously defines the boundaries of what we do know about intelligence on a general basis.
