A person can increase his IQ score through mental training. However, a person's intelligence is pretty-much ingrained in his/her mental infrastructure at birth. That person can waste his/her God-given talent, or sharpen it to make the most of it.Monderegal » 10 Aug 2022, 12:29 pm » wrote: ↑ Just to get off the topic of politics for a second I would like to get a bit more philosophical.

intelligence itself is a rather vague word and open to interpretation.Monderegal » 10 Aug 2022, 12:29 pm » wrote: ↑ Just to get off the topic of politics for a second I would like to get a bit more philosophical.

That is what it was defined to represent, not how it works individually alive. to prepare for the future one has to experience evolving past and current conditions and limitations of those conditions everyone is equally existing within here as compounding ancestral results never same form shaped upon arrival as departed and not the same shape as died to decomposed.Monderegal » 10 Aug 2022, 12:29 pm » wrote: ↑ Just to get off the topic of politics for a second I would like to get a bit more philosophical.

the IQ test itself has a measurable value known as g, which basically represents across the board performance on the test...e.g. a highly stratified score will have little impact on g. the measure g seems to correspond most to what we intuitively consider 'intelligence'.
g has also been demonstrated as the most genetically heritable part of the iq test.
IQ has been studied in tremendous depth. there are a LOT of studies and literature on this general subject and it is not philosophy...it is science. Unfortunately the results of the science seems to make liberals cry, so there is some fake 'controversy' about it. but you can go ahead and read what the scientists have actually discovered about iq and g etc. There is no replication crisis in this field. it is very highly predictive.
sure, it is sortof like athletics. people can be gifted in general but in order to be very good at something you do need training. FOr the most part g determines how long it takes to undergo this training, not so much what your plateau is. (whereas athletic ability is somewhat the opposite)

For instance, can AI have intelligence? Certainly you can say AI can be intelligent and programed to a high level of IQ. Still, it's programed and so is all its intelligent merit its programing. That's the psychology and philosophy of intelligence.
Intelligence is a capacity to learn and apply knowledge, wisdom is gained from experience. Some of the most intelligent people often seem to have blind spots, they lack wisdom in certain areas. I do believe that Intelligence unchallenged will atrophy.Monderegal » 10 Aug 2022, 12:29 pm » wrote: ↑ Just to get off the topic of politics for a second I would like to get a bit more philosophical.

Tru intelligence is a blend of IQ - ability to quickly grasp and understand things an EQ - the ability to place information within the proper context.

That is actually necessary for intelligence to exist. Some irrational purpose. A perfectly logical machine is FIRST going to ask itself why it should bother using energy to think about anything at all, and never have an answer. This is why sentient AI will never exist.
Okay, seriously now !
