This paper is a survey of a large number of informal definitions of ``intelligence'' that the authors have collected over the years. Naturally, compiling a complete list would be impossible as many definitions of intelligence are buried deep inside articles and books. Nevertheless, the 70-odd definitions presented here are, to the authors' knowledge, the largest and most well referenced collection there is.

  1. Promptbreeder: Self-Referential Self-Improvement Via Prompt Evolution

    cs.CL 2023-09 unverdicted novelty 8.0 of 10

    Promptbreeder evolves both task prompts and the mutation prompts that improve them using LLMs, outperforming Chain-of-Thought and Plan-and-Solve on arithmetic and commonsense reasoning benchmarks.

  2. Position: Modular Memory is the Key to Continual Learning Agents

    cs.LG 2026-03 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A modular memory combining in-context learning and in-weight learning is proposed as the key to continual learning agents.

  3. Some things to know about achieving artificial general intelligence

    q-bio.NC 2025-02 reject novelty 2.0 of 10

    The paper contends that AI cannot reach AGI while humans supply the problem structure, and benchmarks cannot prove generality because correct answers do not reveal the solver's method.
