> Similarly I wouldn't be "Generally Intelligent" by this definition if you sat me at a Cyrillic or Chinese keyboard

Would you be able to be taught to use those keyboards? Then you're generally intelligent. If you could not learn, then maybe you're not generally intelligent?

Regarding disabled people, this is an interesting point. Assuming that we're talking about physical disabilities only, disabled people are capable of learning how to use any standard human inputs. It's just the physical controls that are problematic.

For an AI, the physical input is not the problem. We can just put servo motors on the car controls (steering wheel, brakes, gas) and give it a camera feed from the car. Given those inputs, can the AI learn to control the car as a generally intelligent person could, given the ability to use the same controls?
