If a 'superintelligence' achieves the same outcomes as humans without engaging in the same class of intellectual tasks that humans do, wouldnt it still be a superitelligence? Deep blue was beating everybody at chess without engaging in the same process as humans. If chess is a metaphor for life, it seems some algorithm might do better at all the things a human does while not arriving at its decisions in a remotely similar way.

Rationality is an attractor for high intelligence architectures. You may be able to get good results another way (and even good results that surpass a human) but at the limit rationality is the way to have high intelligence.
