       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. How do you suppose to create artificial        AK> intelligence without programming? So, according to atheists               Well, they would. The question is, when is the programming good        enough to be intelligence?               AK> there is a natural intelligence (intelligence of a crow,        AK> for instance) and there is artificial intelligence that by        AK> definition must be made by some intelligent force.        AK> Programming is equal word to making.               Fortunately, I do not believe Bill Gates is much of a        programmer. It would be hell to think of Bill Gates as        equivalent to God.              BOB KLAHN bob.klahn@sev.org http://home.toltbbs.com/bobklahn              ...
