The thesis of "What is Intelligence" is based around intelligence being just that.
> Intelligence is the ability to model, predict, and influence one’s future; it can evolve in relation to other intelligences to create a larger symbiotic intelligence.
The book is worth a read. But I don't believe it limits the type of intelligence we have to humans, by definition. Then again, I'm only halfway through the book :).
