Intelligence is required to understand that is clueless nonsense.
How? By being knowledgeable, intelligent, and intellectually honest.

Well done. Finding a way to look at things so that results that seemed unintuitive seem intuitive can be powerful and satisfying.
The guy's remarkable response makes clear that he's a clueless troll.

Sure, but it's also important to reject gradus_ad's "should", which is completely baseless.

I'm going to need some evidence that Kurzweil was right in 80%+ of his predictions with several more on track.

"seems" does a lot of work here. But rational analysis tells us that, whatever the relationship is, it's not friendship.
