If anything, the discrepancy in the tire sizes would work against his argument. He states "it may be the result of the car being delivered with 19-inch wheels and all-season tires, not the specified 21-inch wheels and summer tires."

If the speedometer assumed 21 inches per revolution when he only travels 19 inches, then the reported speed will be *higher* than the true speed. So if his speedometer reported 54 MPH at the 180 mile mark, as claimed, the logging data should show low 50's; in fact it shows low 60's.

destinyland writes "After 13 years, the creator of the Noble Ape cognitive simulation says he's learned two things about artificial intelligence. 'Survival is a far better metric of intelligence than replicating human intelligence,' and "There are a number of examples of vastly more intelligent systems (in terms of survival) than human intelligence." Both Apple and Intel have used his simulation as a processor metric, but now Tom Barbalet argues its insights could be broadly applied to real life. His examples of durable non-human systems? The legal system, the health care system, and even the internet, where individual humans are simply the 'passive maintaining agents,' and the systems can't be conquered without a human onslaught that's several magnitudes larger."
