Unfortunately it seems we are not even fully in agreement about that. A turing style test is a test of knowledge, the AIQ style test is a test of abstract intelligence.
An AIQ type test which just measures abstract intelligence fails to differentiate between feral einstein and educated einstein.
Effective intelligence, perhaps call it wisdom, is some product of intelligence and knowledge. The difference between human minds and those of elephants or whales is that of knowledge.
My core point, to reiterate again: the defining characteristic of human minds is knowledge, not raw intelligence.
Intelligence can produce knowledge from the environment. Feral Einstein would develop knowledge of the world, to the extent that he wasn't limited by non-knowledge/intelligence factors (like finding shelter or feeding himself).
