Your first definition would include Wikipedia (or even a printed encyclopedia or other reference material). Is Wikipedia intelligent? It is likely both Artificial and General so I think we are there, Skynet is upon us and it is user editable!

This is the difficulty of any definition of intelligence: it fails as soon as it is applied...

Those things you mentioned are not “mitigating” in the verb sense, the intelligence USES those things to INTELLIGENTLY mitigate “uncertainties”.

If you cannot see Wikipedia and a tape-measure as both the product and resources of intelligence, you’re failing yourself somehow.

The definition I have given remains superior!

Btw, information is the removal of uncertainty. If it does not remove uncertainty, it is not information.

You can see how these simple truths interrelate.
