No one understands intelligence. It's just an agreed upon unit of measurement. It doesn't have any more meaning than it does that this is the year 2013 in the West or that I am 66 inches tall.



We can all understand person A being smarter than person B. What is questionable is whether we can use a uniform numerical measure for what we intuitively regard a cleverness or intelligence.
