intution vs instinct

What is instinct and what is intution. Instinct is a preprogrammed function in us like a bios/firmware function which works even without an OS(but still needs a system software (hence conscious intelligence) to trigger it). Intution is similar in that its a un/subconcious function but just that its not pre-programmed but subconciously and recently analysed in the background by your brain/intelect based on directly or indirectly gained knowledge.

Instinct is common to all animals while intution is perhaps unique to humans or atleast intelligent beings. it increases with intellect in the being and can reach a peak as ESP/Psychic knowledge of future events.
Being social is again an animal instinct and not an intellectual process unique to humans as many assume. Living in societies and social behavior is common to all animals and certainly to all mamals where the social level is as developed as humans.

so humans should strive to be more intutive than instinctive which makes us regressive. instinct is action without thinking. thinking before acting consciously improves intuitiveness.
