A human would answer this by talking about the history of intelligence testing, the relevant biases, how factor analysis plays a role and how easy it is to manipulate outcomes in factor analysis if you feed your model with biased data. Question whether IQ scores are an accurate measure of intelligence, and whether intelligence can at all be defined as a single metric, and what use it has doing so. Then with all that caveats and biases in mind simply answer the question.
In modern psychology difference in IQ among racial group is only difficult and uncomfortable statistics because it demonstrates years of scientific racism that thrived inside the field.
