I rather like this paper, but I think it is generous to say their benchmarks measure "intelligence".

We have no dang clue what intelligence is, nor how to measure it.

  Broadly in laymen's terms, no, we don't. We do have some ideas though. We have lots and lots of different tests of different facets of intelligence. How high can you count? (crows can count up to 30), how long can you remember things? (elephants can remember things from up to 50 years ago), Memory games, Reasoning. "The Science of Human Intelligence" , by Haier, Colom, and Hunt. is a good read.
