GPT 4 already scored higher than 95% of people. The average human isn't really all that smart.



On knowledge tests for sure. It completely falls short on common sense in which it's worse than almost anyone.


Well IQ is a reasoning test, and common sense is practical every day reasoning, so it should cover that. Are we talking about the same people that try to wrestle alligators, sign up for pyramid schemes and ride speedbikes in a T shirt and shorts? Common sense isn't super common.


The thing with IQ tests is they're all based on similar concepts so it's possible to train for them which is what AI does. Most humans grow up learning to walk, speak, interact, read non verbal cues. I would argue a musicians wouldn't tend to be a higher IQ than an average person but an AI can't come close to writing a song and playing a guitar that reasonates with people. AI can assist with it but it's missing the human spark for now


Have you not tried Suno AI?

We are not that far away of AI creating perfect music for us.


The average human is not trained to be smart. They are trained to earn money, provide for family and navigate social situations.
