Abstract

In this paper, we develop the idea of a universal anytime intelligence 
test. The meaning of the terms “universal” and “anytime” is manifold 
here: the test should be able to measure the intelligence of any 
biological or artificial system that exists at this time or in the 
future. It should also be able to evaluate both inept and brilliant 
systems (any intelligence level) as well as very slow to very fast 
systems (any time scale). Also, the test may be interrupted at any time, 
producing an approximation to the intelligence score, in such a way that 
the more time is left for the test, the better the assessment will be. 
In order to do this, our test proposal is based on previous works on the 
measurement of machine intelligence based on Kolmogorov complexity and 
universal distributions, which were developed in the late 1990s (C-tests 
and compression-enhanced Turing tests). It is also based on the more 
recent idea of measuring intelligence through dynamic/interactive tests 
held against a universal distribution of environments. We discuss some 
of these tests and highlight their limitations since we want to 
construct a test that is both general and practical. Consequently, we 
introduce many new ideas that develop early “compression tests” and the 
more recent definition of “universal intelligence” in order to design 
new “universal intelligence tests”, where a feasible implementation has 
been a design requirement. One of these tests is the “anytime 
intelligence test”, which adapts to the examinee's level of intelligence 
in order to obtain an intelligence score within a limited time.
