I don't think creating a picture or playing video games qualify as
intelligence - maybe the picture part.

Computers are getting really good at diagnosing illness. This isn't so much
AI as an expert system. I think they can detect lies, too, but maybe not in
real time. The thing about jeopardy is that (if I got this right) is that
you have to be able to pick up clues from context which is hard(er).
