Artificial definitions

Just saw a post talking about someone predicting when we’ll see “ASI” (artificial superintelligence). The grifters haven’t even managed a decent definition of “AGI”, let alone, “AI”. What is “ASI”? We’re told it’s “defined” by Nick Bostrom. I went to find that definition because the way it was paraphrased didn’t “define” anything in a meaningful way – certainly not in any measurable way.

Nick’s definition of Superintelligence (not Artificial superintelligence, BTW):

‘By a “superintelligence” we mean an intellect that is much smarter than the best human brains in practically every field, including scientific creativity, general wisdom and social skills.’ ^[1]

If I asked what “a” was and you said “b and c”, that answer is a non-answer because it replaces one unknown “a” with more unknowns “b” and “c”. Uncertainty divided into smaller pieces of uncertainty is still…uncertain…

What is an “intellect”?
What does “much smarter” mean?
Before that, what does “smarter” mean?
What does “practically” every field mean? That’s a weasel-word.

The author’s specific examples are baffling as well. Why these three things? If we had a definition of “smarter” above that doesn’t exist, that might help.

“scientific creativity” - definition? Creativity correlates to “smarter”?
“general wisdom” - definition?
“social skills” - puzzling - how does this relate to “smarter”? Now I really need to see that definition of “smarter” and “much smarter”!
