How about the manhatten project (the organization and its structure) as
a device that was more intelligent (specifically intelligence as applied
to nuclear physics) than any single human.  Or do you want to eliminate
devices with human components?  If so why?

Also is a man with an encyclopedia more intelligent than one without one?
How about a man with a book on logic?
