Goebbels would be happy with you
intelligence = conceived, hypothetical understanding & therefore not measurable
IQ tests only show if someone has general knowledge or a broad interest

You're completely wrong.... some people are simply smarter than others. It's called cognitive inequality. It's sad but true.

Here are some good interviews with experts:

I've never said people aren't smarter, only that IQ test are overrated

The new ones that are being used now are much more accurate - no cultural bias or language barrier, just shapes and pattern recognition.

so the new version is better than the previous one that failed? It's based on...? On the old one? Okay, I rest my case.
But I do like the original concept of IQ test to separate races
replied 1751d
Race is observable from shared phenotypes + common ancestry.

The tests keep getting better as they have more testing data to refine which questions are most indicative of intelligence
replied 1751d
So they have improved a test to measure a conceived, hypothetical concept like intelligence which can't be measured. Well, good luck
Is the next thing they measure the social contract?
