In reality, most of us are quick enough to tell the difference between 'seeming smarts' and 'real smarts' when it comes to the people in our lives - both wanted and unwanted. It strikes me as unlikely that we would be any more satisfied with an AI that 'seems smart' any more than we are satisfied with the 'seemingly smart' people in our lives.

An interesting conundrum arises, do we REALLY want AI that is smart - truly smart that is, not seemingly smart. My guess is that a truly smart AI would scare the s**t out of us - many of us before the project was complete with those initially 'unscared' winding up scared lifeless years after the project is complete.

And too. What determines smart? 'Book learning', adaptability, IQ, memory?

edit: I am not a gamer, but find the AI concept fascinating. Hence I butted in with some 'general commentary' re: AI.
