First you have to come up with a definition of what intelligence is.
I'm pretty sure it has something to do with extrapolation. Take a set of circumstances and extrapolate it as far as you can to a valid conclusion.
For example some people have apples drop on their head and go... ouch a damn apple hit me, others come up with the theory of gravity..
I think pretty much most forms of intelligence come down to correct interpretation followed by valid extrapolation, what do you guys think?
