To me, “a generally well-educated human” and a “highly intelligent” person sounds like more or less the same thing. If, in his mind, there is some clear-cut difference between the two, I haven’t seen him explain this difference anywhere (and I’ve listened to and read a lot of his words).
They seem quite different to me: one is about AIs being able to talk like a smart human, and the other is about their ability to actually do novel scientific research and other serious intellectual tasks.
