Ah yes, ph.d intelligence, but the wisdom of a toddler.

[–] shneancy@lemmy.world 23 points 1 year ago (2 children)

mmm, unironically sounds like me. According to my iq test i had PhD level intelligence at 18, and what am i doing at 24? unemployed, playing video games, and crying

[–] Noodle07@lemmy.world 26 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It's alright, you can keep going for a bit, I'm about to hit 30 playing video-games and crying

[–] AlolanYoda@mander.xyz 3 points 1 year ago

I'm 30. Almost have a PhD.

Also playing video games and crying

Wait until you're 40 talking about that IQ test like the Al Bundy of brains

[–] shneancy@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

nah IQ tests are more or less bullshit, they're incredibly flawed and biased, only situation you'd see me talking about them at lenght is bashing the entire concept of trying to quantify general intelligence

They'll give it all the social interaction and wisdom scraped from YouTube clips.

Wisdom implys it has intelligence, it does not. It’s a word predictor.
