Is there a pro-social way to theorize intelligence, or is all theory on intelligence a dead end?

This is definitely not my area of expertise, but it is a question that I’ve thought about for a long time. I’m aware of the illegibility of IQ as a concept, and its connections to eugenics and scientific racism. Are there any theorists who do a good job of discussing intelligence (in whatever way they operationalize the term), or is this too close to a nonsensical dead-end? Would love to hear everyone’s thoughts.
