Pournelle I should have thought that if you can make a machine more or less intelligent; and make another machine ABLE TO RECOGNIZE GENIUS (it need not itself be able to "be" or "have" genius) then the "genius machine " problem is probably solved: have the somewhat intelligent one generate lots of ideas, with random factors thrown in, and have the second "recognizing" machine judge the products. Obviously they could be combined into one machine.
