Intelligence has been defined in many ways:

  • the capacity for abstraction
  • Capacity for pattern recognition
  • logic
  • understanding
  • self-awareness
  • learning - ability to learn fast
  • reading - ability to read effectively 10x better than average readers
  • reasoning
  • planning
  • critical thinking
  • problem-solving.
  • Numeracy - subset of reasoning applied to basic counting and up to quick assessment of feasibility
  • mechanisms and algorithms - understanding patterns of how things work
  • Visualization - capacity to manipulate 3D objects in one's mind
  • Orders of magnitude - understanding quantities in the large sense. Ex. How big is a grain of sand, how much does a container ship weigh, size of universe - and undersanding the magnitude readily to within factor of 10. This is essential numeracy that allows one to assess basic feasibility to free oneself of social and political manipulation.
  • Nonlinearity - understanding or exponential growth and quantum phenomena

Not to mention very specific non-rational knowledge, treated separately due to the greater importance of these:
