Hello Alexander,

 BK>> So, my musing analysis leads to this question, when you reach the
 BK>> point where you can't actually tell if a computer's response is
 BK>> just a program line, or actual intelligence, can that be considered
 BK>> the dividing line between programming and artificial intelligence?

 ak> A strange question.

Like the other Bob (Robert Heinlein), Bob is a stranger
in a strange land.  And everybody knows how strange that
Bob was.  Had a fetish for redheads.  A real fetish.
Redheads and cats.  Especially the cat who walks through
walls.

 ak> How do you suppose to create artificial intelligence

"Whatever you do, you'll regret it."
- Allan McLeod Gray 1905-1975

 ak> So, according to atheists there is a natural
 ak> intelligence (intelligence of a crow, for instance)

"In waking a tiger, use a long stick."
- Mao Tse-Tung 1893-1976

 ak> and there is artificial intelligence that by definition must be made by some
 ak> intelligent force.

"Women are meant to be loved, not to be
understood." - Oscar Wilde 1854-1900

 ak> Programming is equal word to making.
