Your Definition
The capacity of a decentralized, adaptive system to solve problems and achieve goals in a variable environment. This intelligence is measured by resilience, adaptability, and the efficiency of its information-energy trade-offs. It's not an IQ score for an individual, but a measure of how well a hive, a city's traffic flow, or an online community can navigate challenges and innovate. The intelligence is in the network's structure and its dynamic rules of engagement.
