So I am confused... Do you mean that chess playing programes evaluate all moves or do they only evaluate some? You have made the statement that such heuristics as used in the chess playing computer are either not AI or show AI to be shallow. A difference you gave was that people, supposedly with intelligence of the non-artificial kind, are able to prune out unbeneficial moves quickly. I provided documentation that modern chess playing programs do just that as well as a response that your example difference was unsatisfactory to support your statement.

Okay, we don't "know" how humans make this pre-selection; does it matter? does the mechanism with which the selection is made determine whether it is the exhibition of intelligence? Or is the ability to make the selection and decision the exhibition of intelligence?

If it is the mechanism which is the difference and we don't know what that mechanism is, then how can you state that the mechanism used in AI is shallow or unsatisfactory for the problem set?
