They predict what comes next and are very good at it. That's all intelligence is. What comes next in a pattern? What will my senses perceive next when I drop this ball? What is the next hypothesis to test after I made these measurements in the previous experiment? What is the best next move in this game after the current trajectory?

Maybe. And while this may be a useful superpower, it's hard to predict whether it would be an enjoyable one.
