Intelligence
Intelligence has been defined in many different ways to include the capacity for logic, understanding, self-awareness, learning, emotional knowledge, reasoning, planning, creativity, and problem solving. It can be more generally described as the ability to perceive or infer information, and to retain it as knowledge to be applied towards adaptive behaviors within an environment or context.
Machine
A machine uses power to apply forces and control movement to perform an intended action. Machines can be driven by animals and people, by natural forces such as wind and water, and by chemical, thermal, or electrical power, and include a system of mechanisms that shape the actuator input to achieve a specific application of output forces and movement. They can also include computers and sensors that monitor performance and plan movement, often called mechanical systems.

Intelligence
The intellectual power, through words and things,
Went sounding on, a dim and perilous way!
William Wordsworth, Excursion, Book III.
Machine
The machine is no longer the paragon of progress and the final expression of our desires: it is merely a series of instruments, which we will use in so far as they are serviceable to life at large, and which we will curtail where they infringe upon it or exist purely to support the adventitious structure of capitalism.
Lewis Mumford, Technics and Civilization (1934) Ch. 8 "Orientation," p.365
Machine
We are becoming the servants in thought, as in action, of the machine we have created to serve us.
John Kenneth Galbraith (2007) The new industrial state. p. 9.
