What Intelligence and Genius Actually Are

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: For those interested in the big questions such as what is life, this brief essay gives straight answers on the characteristics of life that AI can never have. For this moment I take off my academic hat and speak from direct experience. What intelligence and genius actually are is completely different from what is usually discussed, but this explanation should make perfect sense. I received personal guidance from Alan Watts, who helped transmit Zen Buddhism to the West without contradicting science. This essay fits in his lineage and is my utmost legacy of intuitive insights.
