Cyc uses a really bizarre definition of Intelligence. The folks involved seem to think Intelligence = knowing a bunch of stuff.

of course there is no good definition of Intelligence and it is better than Kurtzweil's moronic "intelligence is pattern recognition".

(I feel I left that looking a bit like a ad hom. It is not because the of the direction of the inference. Kurtzweil believes dumb stuff != the stuff is dumb because Kurtzweil is but may well imply that Kurzweil is dumb because he believes dumb stuff.)
