The Tong Test

It is agreed that “artificial general intelligence” will be a cybernetic tool with many human behaviors. But is the “human” more like Albert Einstein, or say, a “digital Chinese girl that looks to be about 3 to 4 years old.” Although the former will be a very powerful tool, the latter may be a more powerful tool that will help humans understand how we develop, learn and mature.

I’m thinking the latter may be more useful in the long term.
