Artificial means made by design not by random mutation and natural selection as we were.

Intelligence is behavior that a smart human performs, and if someone or something outsmarts than human then that thing is either intelligent or very very lucky. It is the exact same test we humans use to tell the difference between smart people and those less smart.
