An AI designed to interact with humans is a social entity. Its performance will depend on its ability to understand social information.

It is not. Why is that relevant to social entities?

    How well you interact with other members of a society increases your chances of procreation, survival, knowledge acquisition, ie. it makes sense as a measure of intelligence

      It's a pretty ambiguous definition. The most powerful man in the world right now is not someone I consider a role model for social cognition and yet there he is with the football for the second time demonstrating grandmaster skill at social cognition to get there.
