1/ I'd like to make up a theory of intelligence based on a 2-element ontology: boundary and interior intelligence
-
-
8/ Interior intelligence is reading a book competently, extracting insights and arguments. Boundary intelligence is picking books to read.
Show this thread -
9/ Interior intelligence is being a good listener. Boundary intelligence is deciding whom to listen to.

10/ Basically, better input plus mediocre IQ beats bad input and genius IQ every time, so boundary intelligence is leverage
Show this thread -
11/ And obviously, boundary intelligence is more sensitive to context. The noisier and angrier info streams get, the more BI beats II
Show this thread -
12/ Most of boundary intelligence has to do with input intelligence, but output intelligence becomes more important with higher agency
Show this thread -
13/ Output intelligence is basically the metacognition around when/where/how/to-whom/why to say or do things you are capable of saying/doing
Show this thread -
14/ We think a lot about external factors in decisions, but output intelligence is about freedom left after you've dealt with external part

Can you compare and contrast this with “street smarts vs book smarts”? Or perfect timing? Or the gift of the gab?

Standardized testing is designed to test one kind of II, but coaching (Kaplan etc) targets removing BI handicaps (teaching what to ignore)
