Ask them to speculate how time travel would work if it was possible. If they reply with anything that assumes matter or space can magically multiply, then you know you're talking with a sub 130. If they simply argue it isn't possible, then you're talking with a sub 100.

Talk to him about a math/physics/engineering problem. If he gives you a boneheaded response or responds by saying something like that stuff is way over his head, then he probably isn't 130 IQ or above.

Being highly intelligent and being able to emulate a calculator have little in common. There are many high IQ people who have no interest in anything related to STEM.

If someone started trying to talk to me about engineering then I'd also act like I was too dumb to understand it because that's the most effective way to avoid both present and future conversations about a topic that doesn't interest me. Very high IQ people are humble, or are at least confident enough in their own attributes to know that they have nothing to prove.

You'd be surprised at how many quiet, unassuming, seemingly average people are very smart but smart enough to realize that flaunting it is only detrimental. Intelligence is a tool to be used when necessary, not a badge to wear.

Why do you still think of IQ as of singular value? How is it supposed to represent intelligence accurately? It is an averege of several different metrics at best if credible at all. Say, verbal intelligence, spacial orientation, memory, math, logic etc... All of it just gets thrown into a mixer and chopped up into a singular unrepresentative value, kek.
Also, mere existence of such a phenomenon as hypercalculia should make you doubt the credibility of IQ as a metric of intelligence. Really makes you wonder if there are people with, who, say, are very good at understanding language, but retarded at everything else (which perhaps would allow them to be the ultimate pseuds as they would be able to endlessly come up with sophisms indistinguishable from real logic)

IQ is an index of general intelligence, which is defined as the capacity of learning patterns and solving problems.
you develop sufficiently abstract tests (meaning they rely on acquired knowledge as little as possible, i.e. no questions about Kant's philosophy or how to solve a cubic equation) and apply these to a large enough population, and define the mean score as 100. give it a normal distribution and set the standard deviation at 15, and that means that an IQ of 130 means you're better at learning patterns and solving problems than 95% of the people in the reference population, and an IQ of 145 means you're better at learning patterns and solving problems than 99.7% of the population.

It's not a hard concept to grasp.

>b-but what about hypercalculia???
hypercalculia is itself defined as an aptitude at performing mathematical computations that is above the student's regular learning capacities. the very concept of "hypercalculia" is based on a discrepancy between a person's regular intelligence and his skill in perfoming arithmetics without the aid of pen and paper.
It doesn't disprove the concept of IQ just like dyslexia also doesn't disprove the concept of IQ, and also like finding out a great musician is a complete retard doesn't mean that musical skill has no relation to intelligence.

You can most definitely timetravel, but only forwards in time as time is a rate of change that can be avoided and thus "travelled through" at a slower rate than the surroundings. The only reason why dinosaurs born the DAY of the Chicxulub impact couldn't travel here, is technologic advancement. IF there was a civilization with warp bubble technology present at that catastrophy, they could theoretically return at any moment with dino pets, if they chose to gamble on this date being more habitable than any other arbitrary future date.

Shit example. You should have used "business admin text" or something.
Kant's ideas can be summed up in 2-3 minutes. Even 2-3 sentences if you just care about the ethics. It's very grounded in logic, etc.
Your example is shit because explaining the categorical imperative and then asking someone "now, what are some arguments against it? In particular, why would someone think the cat imp is terrible for some concerns, like animal ethics?" is a brilliant heuristic to discern intelligence.
And if you have time left "How could it be improved?"
This is a foolproof way to detect 130+s.

>> No.15435720

Yep. Good explanation. Most people misidentify intelligence since they only identify it relative to themselves, and their own ideas, rather than the concept of intelligence. Or hollywood notions and things like hypercalculia as you've noted.

I know what IQ is, thank you. Ok, then simple example: say a person scored 20 on tests that rely on verbal intelligence and 80 on tests that rely on math. Then take a person that scored 40 on verbal and 60 on math. Final result for both would be 100. You see now why it is unrepresentative? It at best must be broken down to components or at least have several different metrics with 100 as a mean for each, but its a fucking 1 number.

Analogy: an athlete that can do max of 300 pushups but 100 squats = athlete that can do max of 300 squats but 100 pushups

IIRC, I have seen a documentary about some girl who was barely could tie shoelaces kind of retard and yet she could multiply 6 figure numbers, which makes me assume that calculations ability (as well as, maybe, some other things) might be a thing independent from intelligence, which I personally define as the ability to quickly and effectively construct an accurate and precise model of the outside world in your head. Pretty simple: the quicker you do it, the more information you grasp, the better chances you got to act "smart" meaning in a way that enables you to achieve your goals. But does that mean we should merge different aspects of the model into just 1? No, thats stupid.

I may be wrong about the documentary and the girl might be not as retarded as I remember her to be

Also, nobody is trying to disprove anything, why is it so common amongst you to take everything as though it is a point opposed to yours? I don't try to deny IQ like you imagined it to be, I just think it should include more data to be more accurate.

But nonetheless, you should understand that simply being able or not able to correctly solve a test might not necessarily mean that the person is smart or dumb. 1 or 0/right or wrong does not account for the person's trail of thought during the test taking, it just shows the results of the work of the brain, it is a mere proxy. That is why people should be more skeptical about IQ.

Check to see if they’re capable of communicating with less intelligent people with high proficiency. In order to do that and to have them follow along you’d need to be able to quickly develop an internal model of their own way of thinking and then immediately finding ways to fit your thought process into their thought process. And then check to see how intelligently they communicate with other intelligent people

you're trying to disprove IQ as a singular value, but that is the concept of IQ itself. and no, you were not the first person to thing about dividing IQ into several "intelligence" categories, psychologists have been talking about that stuff for decades. logical-mathematic, linguistic, spatial, interpersonal, intrapersonal etc etc

Then you tell me in what way exactly, chap, because I see that by merging we factually loose information. Will you argue that it isn't so?

Also:
1. Consider it a proxy rather than a concrete actual representation of intelligence (a very good one, yes, still just a proxy) for it only shows whether or not a person's trail of thought had been able to reach the correct conclusion, but does not show the trail of thought itself and underlying mechanisms behind it. Therefore if a respondent's output was incorrect, you can't really tell at which step it went wrong and gave a kinda warped model of reality.

2. We can't really tell if a test is 100% what it's SUPPOSED to be, which is being:
-relies exclusively on a person's innate ability to build an accurate and detailed model of reality (or rather effectiveness and quickness of performing this task) in their head independently from the knowledge they have accumulated throughout their life (crystalized intelligence, experience whatever you call it, doesn't really change a thing)

I am kinda impressed by how many people take IQ as a perfect and undoubtedly measure of intelligence instead of giving it a skeptical eye and try to think of it for more than just a second, forgetting that it was designed by humans, who (imagine my surprise) MAKE MISTAKES.

Now, before you proclaim me an IQ denialist (which, I am guessing, some of you inevitably will) I must say that I do believe that objective truth exists and there are no "opinions" and that intelligence is a real thing and it can be measured, I just don't believe that taking a test is a correct and exhaustive way to measure every aspect of it. My rough guess is that people who are closest to exhaustive and completely scientific understanding of what intelligence is are AI researchers.

I hope I made myself clear, I would've brought examples to 1 and 2 for you to better understand what I mean (its pretty simple, actually, as well as the examples) but char limit, bruh
