Aren't we all? Each day we discover/learn something new... Each day - magic happens! Each day: we live, learn, grow, create... We are all the greatest intellects of our time. Now add that up because everyone has something different that they bring into this world - the greatest intellect is humanity itself.

I would say AuthorC. Clark .
He was a British Author who mostly wrote sci-fi stories and one of the all time writers of our time.
If he had patented all o fhis ideas, and gotten copy rights on intellitual works of his he would have owned the internet and been aabout 1000 times richer than Bill Gates.
Most improvements we see today started wiht his stories. He wasj ust not interested in money or fame beyond his personal life.
Einstein I am sur eis the favorite here but his work is steadly being disproved or changed to theory only. He actually was not the inventor, realist or futurest Clark was. Far from it.

I think the owner of Virgin records/Airlines is!
He is a thinker and a doer. Just recently he offered anyone that can come up with a real solution to global warming 1billion dollars. That's balls with a cause. I forgot what his name is but the guy is one of a kind, self made and positive to a flaw! I love to watch him smile because he radiates this energy that you can't help but feel it!
He had a special on TV a while back, where he had a contest to let someone run Virgin Records for him. One Cool Dude.

Einstein has to be in the top percentile, depending on how one wants to restrict the selection. William Lane Craig is one of the most intelligent living philosophers.

Noam Chomsky... many people, sources and scientists acknowledge him as the foremost intellectual of our time.
He is an MIT professor, the leading linguist of our time, a very prolific writer and of course a freedom fighter and advocate for the American way

Figure it out for yourself my lad,
You have all that the greatest and wisest have had,
two arms two legs two ears and two eyes
and a brain to use if you would be wise
With this equipment they all began
So start for the top and say I CAN
It is you. It is I>

For profound, courageous, diverse and adventuresome I would have to say Noam Chomsky. For common sense, logic, humanity and ability to communicate, Marilyn vos Savant.
