Speed is both connected to and distinct from other dimensions of intelligence; solving a problem in a millisecond rather than an hour can indicate greater intelligence.

“you get to all kinds of interesting amounts like Eckenstein balance and you start thinking about black holes and like and then speed is like an interesting one too in that it's sort of connected to all of these but speed is also”

“kind of its own thing in the sense that all things being equal if it takes you an hour to know if the two plus two equals four you're just not as intelligent as if it takes you like a millisecond right and then like all of these connect to survival and replication the last one it's like yeah like trees are really really slow so we don't even consider them that intelligent but if you speed up some videos of trees and they're trying to find stuff and so on they're not as dumb as they look like not dumb as”
