Intelligence isn't necessarily human intelligence. Humans are pretty much the most intelligent species on this planet - which says a lot about intelligence tbh - but intelligence is not binary. Wouldn't you say animals are intelligent too? Is a brain even required for intelligence?

if you open the definition of "intelligence" that far then it kind of ceases to be a useful descriptor

for most people the baseline of "intelligence" is at least human comparable
