Many people have identified intelligence with the ability to predict
the future from the past and have studied sequence extrapolation
in this connection.  In this connection there was Fredkin and Michie
and now there is Jan Mycielski.

My objection to taking this as a paradigm is that the prediction of
the future in real life involves many other kinds of learning than
that involved in direct sequence extrapolation.
