The content of the arguments has been effectively refuted already, but I have one thing to add. The piece, and especially the comments section on Stross' site, really need to sort out their terms. They all seem to be equivocating between intelligence and consciousness. Something can be a really powerful optimization process without having humanlike emotions or thought processes.
