Taleb dunking on IQ “research” at length. Technically a seriouspost I guess.
Still sifting through the data myself to have a look, but this study seems to suggest it doesn’t (at least with educational outcomes).
It does show that g is a poor predictor for educational outcomes.
And this study shows that g doesn’t correlate well with wealth.
So, what “life outcomes” is IQ supposed to be so much better at predicting that we can safely ignore its racist baggage?
Hurling ordure at the TREACLES, especially those closely related to LessWrong.
Posts or links discussing our very good friends should have “NSFW” ticked (Nice Sneers For Winners).
AI-Industrial-Complex grift is fine as long as it sufficiently relates to the AI doom from our very good friends.
This is sneer club, not debate club. Unless it’s amusing debate.
[Especially don’t debate the race scientists, if any sneak in - we ban and delete them as unsuitable for the server.]
