The cell has a rudimentary mind. It is conservative in plants, instinctive in animals, and intelligent in humans.

This sounds similar to something one of those old Greek philosophers said once.

I think maybe he means the way some plants can do things like produce nectar when they 'hear' a bee. But I guess he means maybe more examples where the 'intelligence' serves to conserve the plant, maybe something to do with the way some plants can grow towards water. Who knows?

>Gilbert Ning Ling (December 26, 1919 – November 10, 2019) was a Chinese-born American cell physiologist, biochemist and scientific investigator.

>In 1944,F Ling won the biology slot of the sixth Boxer Indemnity Scholarship, a nationwide competitive examination that allowed Chinese science and engineering students full scholarship to study in a United States university. In 1947 he co-developed the Gerard-Graham-Ling microelectrode, a device that allows scientists to more accurately measure the electrical potentials of living cells. In 1962 he proposed the Association induction hypothesis, which claims to be unifying, general theory of the living cell, and is an alternative and controversial hypothesis to the membrane and steady-state membrane pump theories, and three years later added the Polarized-Oriented Multilayer (PM or POM) theory of cell water.

>Ling carried out scientific experiments that attempted to disprove the accepted view of the cell as a membrane containing a number of pumps such as the sodium potassium pump and the calcium pump and channels that engage in active transport.

By your logic, a river is intelligent for finding the path of least resistance toward the sea.

Shit, that's a good point. The river is really performing gradient descent on the land, wherein the cost function is determined by gravity.

I bet it actively chooses to accumulate into a lake rather than go uphill too, doesn't it.

If you're so fucking smart, why don't you explain who are you? From where did you come from? To where you'll go? For how long you'll stay here?

Intelligence is defined by the process of making a choice between one of multiple options, based on acquired information, in order to reach a predetermined result.
A reflex is not intelligence.
Cells have reflexes, not intelligence.
Wake up.

I'm anon.
I came from the internet.
I'm going to hell, probably.
I'll stay here as long as you keep providing cringe.

What the fuck does IQ have to do with determining whether intelligence exists or not?
It only measures it, that's all.
Please, run a little electricity, through your leg then give it an IQ test.
