Quite. I'd define intelligence in an a similar way, we recognise intelligence as the ability to manipulate models and get predictions that are close to reality. Someone who's world view differs significantly from observed reality we would consider insane, their results do not hold up. But its all about context. In the limited context of a chess game, then yes, Deep Blue is intelligent. But what we're talking about is 'human level intelligence' which is the ability to generate 'intelligent' results in a wide and undefined set of systems (after all, the real world isn't always predictable).
