Workflow Intelligence

From John Locke to Workflow Intelligence On Lockean Learning:  Liberalism On Hegelian Abduction:  Hegelian Abduction On Disorganization: Disconnected Workflow Technology generally makes workflow processing faster, and AI technology continues to increase its facility.  However, the meaning of the word intelligence in relation to AI faces the usual problem: it is quickly out-bounded by the word super-intelligence, which lacks an immediate referent. The referent for super-intelligence is, indeed, to the future of intelligence. However, the advent of super-intelligence is also the advent of meaningless.  How so?  Technology, in terms of its ability to process data intelligently and thereby mimic intelligence as we know it, proves itself smarter in terms of the speed of its processing. Technological speed in itself does not necessarily render intelligence unintelligible as it still preserves intelligence at a level of coherence we are able to relate to, but we do nee...
