Intelligence (disambiguation) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (187 words)
Intelligence is the mental capacity of an organism for cognition, indicating some degree of sophistication with regard to its interactions with its environment.
Intelligence or "intel," is information valued for its currency and relevance rather than its detail or accuracy —in contrast with fact, which requires research and checking.
Such data typically refers to current events and human actions, such as may be valuable for purposes of espionage or counter-espionage, hence, as used by 'intelligence agencies and related services,' "intelligence" refers integrally to such active data and the processes for gathering it.
