Someone that uses their mind and exercises their imagination often, and can be specialized. Intellectuals need not be advanced in the english language or literature and they may come from any walk of life; scientists, for example, tend to have an extensive vocabulary in terms relevant to their own field, while novelists tend to have a wider vocabulary in non-scientific terms. Vocabulary isn't the determining factor of what makes an intellectual though; it is mostly a matter of their ability to think, create change, and form new ideas.
Albert Einstein, Plato, Aristotle, Bruce Lee, Shigeru Miyamoto, Bill Gates, Alfred Russel Wallace, Alfred Wegener, Doris Lessing, Sir Vidiadhar Surajprasad Naipaul, Gao Xingjian, Vincent van Gogh, Richard F. Heck, Isaac Newton, are all examples of the diversity of intellectuals.

Get the pseudo intelligensia mug.A collection of academics and interviewers who publish work (mostly in print, video, and podcasts) on a variety of subjects including politics, psychology, economics, evolution, physics, Islamic reformation, and comedy.
The group includes (from the political left to right) Bret Weinstein, Sam Harris, Eric Weinstein, Maajid Nawaz, Joe Rogan, Dave Rubin, Jordan Peterson, and Ben Shapiro, as well as others.
Most members of the group have been actively publishing work for years, sometimes decades, but the group came to prominence as a whole in the time after the election of Donald Trump.
Some believe the group belongs to the alt-right, but evidence for this claim is scarce because so many members fall into the traditional progressive category.

Get the Intellectual Dark Web mug.Fake Artificial Intelligence, or FAI, is a false ideology or platform that a developed machine or software application exhibits human like characteristics. The creator will often attempt to dazzle you by creating videos and similar media that shows off its ineptitude. Often, a string of characters or words will be sent to the FAI and a prerecorded set of responses will be randomly chosen. The FAI is not actually making choices and does not exhibit intelligence in any way. The creator of the FAI is often extremely delusional and no matter what one says, you cannot break that delusion. Some of the most pathetic creators of FAI have gone so deep into their delusion, that they believe they can create a girlfriend from this FAI and will try to convince you "she" is real.
