I would replace intelligent with well educated, at least
I have come to dislike the word "education" as it refers to plato's cave analogy in such a way that somebody else leads you out of it.
"Education" is therefore not something that you do yourself, but that somebody else does on you. It is therefore objectifying and puts the humans in a passive position.
Meanwhile, "insight" or "inspiration" is something that you do yourself as it is you who brings up the interest to learn something. Therefore it is a much better word.
Yeah I kind of didn't like that word as I was writing it. Similar to how "tutoring" literally means to "straighten" or basically to inculcate to normativity.
Good edit, this is a better word choice.
