>"artificial thought"

How about Artificial Intelligence?

  • "intelligence" encompassing "thinking" then becomes the hangup.

    I still say it needs a new name. If we want to be generous, we could state "the limit as time approaches infinity of thunking, is thinking." (I don't believe we will ever achieve astronomically-superior AGI, and certainly don't believe it will ever have a will of its own that someone else didn't give it- which just makes it a tool.)

that's too clunky. in fact, "clunky thinking" is what gave me the idea of "thunking"

you guys would have called lightsabers "laser swords" like Lucas originally did before Alec Guinness corrected him
