Power-acuracy analogies work fine if you're ballistic. For the threaded among us, try a computer analogy:

  • Intelligence is processor power.
  • Common sense is installed programs.
  • Wisdom is configuration.

Garbage in, garbage out. Not to reduce man to materialistic terms, but it can be fun to identify bad robots now and then.
