I know how IQ is measured - that's why I felt comfortable making the statement. And of course 100 is not an absolute, fixed value. But, nevertheless, someone with a sub-100 IQ today is unlikely to use his newfound free time, if he's supplanted as high school janitor by a robot, to create wonderful works of art or technology.
- yeahsure 16y agoSo what if he can't create wonderful works of art or technology? Does that mean he's either a high school janitor or -if replaced by a robot- should just be a homeless? What if he hadn't become a janitor in the first place? What if he had spent all of his youth learning about anything that really makes him tick? I know - lots of "what if's" but that's exactly what I thought when I was a kid, we would get these kind of answers. Hope some day we can.
