Intelligence is a spectrum, not either/or -- a newborn baby is about as intelligent as some mammals. Although it doesn't have any concious goals, its behaviour (hungry -> cry, nipple -> suck) can be explained in terms of it having the goal of staying alive.
A sleeping person - I didn't actually think of that. What do you think?
Hmm, I feel like I should have made clearer that post is just a high-level summary of what I wrote on my blog. Seriously people, read the full post if you have time, I explain stuff in quite a bit more depth.
Given your lack of clear definitions for the terms you use (and the definitions you do have are quite circular), here or on your blog, spending more time on it is not likely to be of value.
