Certainly true Adrian, no argument.

Superintelligence is about the future, AI performing recursive self-improvement with unpredictable results.  AI is what we have now, but in some very specific well-defined areas (such as chess) we have had AI superior to the best human minds for a long time.  For the notion I posted recently about a taxonomy of AI futures, BillK's AI came up with a better idea than anyone here including myself.  I haven't had time to run with the ball on that (family obligations) but I hope to get back on it this week.
