Ok appologies.

Another area is gaming. Backgammon AI, for instance, using neural networks, plays at world-class level. I'm sure you're more aware of those kinds of abilities in chess, as it gets more exposure.

I'm sure you know how stated things work, but...
OCR basically works by comparing the character with hundreads of variations of each character until a match is found - or not found as is often the case.
Board games there are a finite amount of moves therefore everyone can be tried until one which 'works' is found.
Neural networks only tune a predefined operation, they do not facilitate the learning of new operations.
But of course depending on how you define intelligence these things can be classed as examples of limited intelligence.
