I'm not sure I agree with PG here. I see intelligence as an ability to interpolate (usually quickly) whereas wisdom is extrapolation. I think about highly intelligent people who have a deep knowledge base and are able to use that to react to the 95% or the challenges they face, but stumble on the other 5%.
