Honestly I would consider BFS/DFS artificial intelligence (and I think most introductory AI courses agree). But yea it's a definition game and I don't think most people qualify intelligence as purely human-centric. Simple tasks like pattern recognition already count as a facet of intelligence.

I forget the exact quote or who said it, but the gist is that a species cannot be considered sapient (intelligent) on an interplanetary/interstellar stage until they have discovered Calculus. I prefer to use that as my bar for the sapience of those around me as well.
