That's... really profound.

I had never considered the possibility that our version of intelligence might be the flawed, impure one.

In the most literal sense, artificial intelligence is designed to be as flawless as possible (duh). AKA optimized. Evolution makes organisms that only have to function literally just enough (to reproduce). The human body is full of imperfections. It only has to be "good enough". Same with our brain and its functions, inefficiencies, etc. The bar is literally "survive till old enough to fuck".

Obviously our version of intelligence is flawed and impure, very much so.

Though I agree, I'm not sure it was obvious before having some other forms of intelligence to compare to.
