if you can't trick people into thinking you're smart
are you actually smart this kind of interesting question what do you think
about that louis if you were able to create the impression that you are smart
then is that alone an indication that you must really be smart
nothing stuff not so how would you describe
is it be is it clever
is that you are just a good liar if you can convince people you're smart without
actually being smart
i think it could be pretty easy in some cases convince people that you're smart
let's say you have some type of tests
let's say you know what that seinfeld episode retort sixty i_q_ tests and just
pass it off to a lame
okay great
but you need to be geez do you that hell have someone take this test for me cheat
does in a requirement ella jones to say
you know what the way to do well on this past is to have someone else to do it
and then i submitted as myself itd so i don't think i don't think that requires
a a large amount of intelligence to be able to figure that out because they're
big it's you have to have in mind for deception
i think anyone could figure
is that really tricking people into thinking you're smart though
that's just really that's funny way to cheat on a test i don't know that anyone
then
because look yeah you can parading around the results of the psyche tests
if you're going to tell people
if you try to convince people you're smart by saying you have a certain i_q_
you don't even really need to take the test if you're going to deceive the test
you can just lie and say you have a one sixty i_q_ you don't even need the test
so i don't even know that that would be that smart in fact it may actually be
done because if you're planning on convincing people you're smart by
talking about your i_q_ test it sounds like you're going through too much work
that have someone else may be another story do you need to trick people into
thinking you're smart
if you're smart do you need to trick people
uh... although that's a good question
if you're smart well maybe you need to you yeah it's a good point what do you
think on this one
but i just the questions a little bit bizarre it's not so much whether your
convincing people that you're smart
so much is smarter than some other people
i mean uh...
like lewis said it doesn't take a genius to figure out that
you can convince
some people three more intelligent than them
but this does that mean that you're smart and some objective sense the
defense we're comparing to let's let's actually that's brings up another good
question
which is what is eighteen that they
uh... kind of silly barometer some people used to assess the intelligence
of others that you don't really by as a good barometer
mobile people told local people try to use to show their intelligence that you
think is silly like you know maybe people
when you are the world
the job a little bit were what about throwing out historical
and trivia in in public and mentioning its from a book you read right
made is that something you would consider all of that person is actually
smart because they've read history books or have they just figured out something
kind of bogus to use that appears smart in social situations than
uh... yeah army that clearly that is also a bad ah...
barometer
so how do how what's a good way to determine if someone you come into
contact with is smart
i think just having the conversation with them
and in that conversation sunny not not that it's it's
it can be a hundred percent
uh... whether or not the person is intelligent or not
but i think generous pretty good rated
figure out if someone is a is intelligent
the time and what's the best way to assess the intelligence of another
individual
how well they join an i_q_ test
have but it's just that i i disagree with the freezing of the question it's
like they're different types of intelligence
you can be a creative genius
uh... and not know how to get a credit card
earl i kinda thought a form
uh... you can not be very good at you know
um... doing administrative work filing very quickly and in a sense that
requires some skills other people don't have euclidean mind i know i don't know
what i think you're both talking at the exact same time
yelled the problem is that instead of
uh... yes i was there different types of intelligence it seems difficult to be
able to say
it's easy to appear smart in certain situations like at a bar at a cocktail
party or if you do certain things and say certain things you can if you're
intelligent to that group but if you go play video games with some guys late at
night maybe alone seem so smart to them you know
that's kinda reminds me now is that
that's discussion we had about looks in intelligence and all that mobile we can
be sure of to wrap up is that the last place appear smart
is when you're playing videogames in lewis's basement keep the questions
