I am not sure where you have seen this definition for intelligence. I don't think self awareness is required at all. Abstraction can or can not be, but it is not required. I think the most common definition is "ability to solve problems using skill or knowledge". In Google trends ML and AI seem to have been correlating quite well with each other overall indicating that both have always been used. Do you think for example that ants are intelligent? If so, why? Because ants commonly are considered intelligent.
