[red]Intelligence[/red]
Intelligence is a combination of memory, processing information, multi-tasking, problem-solving, deductive reasoning, analytical skills, intuition, logic, understanding, and creativity.
While a computer may have the ability to do some of these task very well, it does not have reason, intuition, and creativity. These would be abilities and not intelligence. Intelligence requires the ability to understand from experience and use reason. Computers, due to their instruction-following nature, cannot have creativity. Understanding requires both logic and empathy. Computers are incapable of such empathy, and thus cannot have true understanding.
Many people are giving themselves to high of intelligence, due to the fact that they can store a lot of information or have a lot of knowledge, or can create advanced technology. While all those do play a factor with intelligence, the most important factors are problem-solving, deductive reasoning, analytical skills, intuition, logic, understanding, and creativity. If you have a lot of knowledge, list it under your abilities. If you can create advanced technology, listed it under skills. If you have all the factors of intelligence, then make sure it's in your bio and rate yourself accordingly.
