Jones:
"As far as analysis of the term "intelligence" is concerned, I am pretty confident that Grice would regard this kind of test, and use of the word "intelligence" to refer to what is assessed by it, as one small element in a much richer fabric, and might find that the grounds for any reductionist thesis (that intelligence in other forms might be somehow reducible to intelligence by this particular metric) are slender."
Interesting.
Let us be reminded that when Grice spoke of 'natural' versus 'non-natural' meaning, he did so, he says (WoW, "Meaning", 1948) because he thought the distinction 'natural'/'artificial' almost too krypto-technical!
