Cunning absolutely should count as an aspect of intelligence.

If this is just a definitions issue, s/artificial intelligence/artificial cunning/g to the same effect.

Strength seems somewhat irrelevant either way, given the existence of Windows for Warships[0].

Emotional intelligence is sometimes defined in a way to encapsulate some of the values of cunning. Sometimes it correlates with power, but sometimes it does not. To get power in a human civilization also seems to require a great deal of luck, just due to the general chaotic system that is the world, and a good deal of presence. The decisions that decide the fate of the world happen in the smoky backdoor rooms, not exclusively over zoom calls with an AI generated face.

Who is Satoshi Nakamoto?

What evidence is there for the physical existence of Jesus?

"Common Sense" by Thomas Paine was initially published anonymously.

This place, here, where you and I are conversing… I don't know who you are, and yet for most of the world, this place is a metaphorical "smokey backroom".

And that's disregarding how effective phishing campaigns are even without a faked face or a faked voice.

Satoshi Nakamoto is a man who thought that he could upend the entire structure of human governance and economics with his One Neat Trick. Reality is sure to disappoint him and his followers dearly with time.

>What evidence is there for the physical existence of Jesus?

Limited, to the extent that physical evidence for the existence of anyone from that time period is limited. I think it's fairly likely there was a a person named Jesus who lived with the apostles.

>"Common Sense" by Thomas Paine was initially published anonymously.

The publishing of Common Sense was far less impactful on the revolution than the meetings held by members of the future Continental Congress. Common Sense was the justification given by those elites for what they were going to do.

No important decisions happen because of discussions here and you are deluding yourself if you think otherwise.

Phishing campaigns can be effective at siphoning limited amounts of money and embarrassing personal details from people's email accounts. If you suggested that someone could take over the world just via phishing, you'd be rightfully laughed out of the room.
