A room from Airchat's 2023 version, recorded as a video. The room's name is the title; the transcript below follows the video, and every time in it plays the video from that point.

[0:00] Right off the bat I would say that intelligence is the capability of solving problems, then depending on how narrow or wide and generic or new the field is, then that puts some kind of quality on it if you want to put some adjective or label on the level or depth of intelligence. I mean it as a definition, so anything can be a problem and it can be even for animals, it can go through the most abstract things possible like what is the universe, what is our existence, or it can be how can I open the door or it can be how I read the room, should I speak here, should I be silent, am I in the right place, it can go to all the extents and that's why I defined it how I put it. Knowledge itself is not intelligence. So computer language.

[0:48] Computer loaded with a lot of text is not intelligence and that's where the problem solving comes in. You need to be able to solve problems, so the artificial intelligence can solve some problems, but those are the ones it's been given and defined beforehand. And that's the definition why I put it this way. So also you could go to the semantics, but I'm not really interested of semantics too much. So you could also say that the knowledge... I also say that the knowledge is just reading a lot of stuff and wisdom is then to apply it the proper way. You have to experience to know exactly what to do and why and practically can do those things, but that's why I prefer the one I gave you earlier.
