Psychologists have noted that average IQ scores around the world have consistently increased over the past 50 years. This phenomenon, named after the researcher who documented its existence, is known as the “Flynn Effect.”
However, studies have shown that the Flynn effect may have ended in some developed nations starting in the mid 1990s.
Whether these higher IQs are the same as increased intelligence is still controversial.
Yet the knowledge needed to be applied by people is increasing exponentially and is increasing I complexity.
The bottom mine is that artificial intelligence is now needed more than every before to compliment and supplant human IQ as complexity, velocity and volatility accelerates change.
