> you are conflating learned models (which are content), as opposed to capacity (such as raw short term memory).
There is no correct definition, however most people agree that intelligence is more than innate ability. If you are focusing on the later as a definition then you can indeed measure it, but consider that there are many people with an IQ as high as Einstien's, but no such deep understanding in quantum mechanics or even any subject.
I would argue that casting out "learned" as something superficial is incorrect, learning is not simply acquisition of knowledge (as education systems have very slowly begun to understand since the mid 20th century)
