Hey how about we start a thread where all of us define in no more than 20 words what we think Intelligence is? multiple definitions welcome. My definition: Itelligence is the ability to learn and know how to use this knowledge.

Intelligence is to wonder what is intelligence.

Intelligence is the ability to solve intelligence tests.

Are you trying to define intelligence or AI?

Intelligence is the ability to understand.

Now... who can define understanding?

The proper application of concepts on the SAT, followed by the reception of a high score. (ETS says the SAT is a test that is able to measure intelligence) :)

One very simple definition might be: Attempting to modify behaviour appropriately according to its environment.
