A “metric” is another word for something that is used as a way of measuring a specific object, task, quality/characteristic, or goal.
For instance, “what metric are you using to measure inteligence?” is asking what criteria are being used to evaluate the intelligence of a particular subject (whether that’s humans, animals, AI, etc.).
An IQ score is an example of a metric of intelligence, though there’s evidence to suggest that IQ is not a good metric of intelligence.
And in the states we don’t do metric, we do standard.
The word metric doesn’t always refer to the metric system… It has another entirely separate meaning.
It’s also not called “standard” in America, it’s called the imperial system.
