Subject: Re: is this a r From: Joscha Bach Sent: Monday, January , : : To: Jeffrey Epstein <[email protected]> [I think] it is a partial map of the territory, while the road is mostly orthogonal. Some of the regions are even emergent. • • Fluid intelligence (Gf) includes the broad ability to reason, form concepts, and solve problems using unfamiliar information or novel procedures. General cognition. Mental representation, with universal problem solving based on associative and symbolic operations: Ability to form stable reliable associative patterns, identify regularities in them, manipulate conceptual representations, traverse spaces of mental simulations, direct and maintain attention, leam a natural language and use it to structure thought and imagination: strikes me as the hardest and most comprehensive part. • • Crystallized intelligence (Gc) includes the breadth and depth of a person's acquired knowledge, the ability to communicate one's knowledge, and the ability to reason using previously learned experiences or procedures. Using the tools mentioned above to abstract knowledge from interaction with an environment, or from analysis of relevant data • • Quantitative reasoning (Gq) is the ability to comprehend quantitative concepts and relationships and to manipulate numerical symbols. Numerosity, ability to abstract and use language to control and structure abstract associations (i.e. dynamic mathematical concepts), and to learn and perform operations/simulations in that domain. Your numeral synesthesia may be a special case of a superior interface to these operations, and contribute to your genius. Btw, you probably know this classic story of a guy turned mathematician after being hit on the head? http://nypostcom/2014/04/20/how-a-brain-injury-turned-a-college-dropout-into-a-genius/ • • Reading and writing ability (Grw) includes basic reading and writing skills. Borrows visual processing (including learning of visual gr
