@Jkqyl @Tipsycaek @wellplayd_ggate @SmailsHat we can also look at heritability of IQ, which is very high (up to 85%).
@Jkqyl we can't just change peoples' algorithms directly. I gave you some evidence of how effort only changes scores a little.

@HbdNrx People develop their algorithms. This is what learning is. -
@HbdNrx You talked about an unknown amount of effort put in for something some of the kids might not even care about much. -
@Jkqyl they quantified the time put in. kids know the SAT matters. you don't have data showing dramatic improvements -
@Jkqyl I'm not really sure why you're arguing that if only people put in more work they'll score substantially better on these tests. -
@HbdNrx To point out that in a world that values IQ, the great scientists will not pass their DNA, only the great IQ test practicers. -
@Jkqyl but great scientists pretty much have the highest IQs as well -
@Jkqyl not to mention that our society certainly does not value intelligence much -
@HbdNrx It will if you make that a prerequisite to breeding. - 1 more reply
