Why is this board so obsessed with IQ?

Only way to show they’re intelligent when they have no real world accomplishments

lack of tangible personal accomplishments, so they find something intangible to make themselves feel better

just like IQ somehow indicates intelligence , world accomplishments on the other hand don't

inb4 psychology isn't a science (who gives a fuck?)
>https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/social-instincts/201911/why-some-narcissists-are-obsessed-iq
>grandiose narcissists view intelligence as an integral part of their self-concept, which explains why they place such high importance on IQ testing. They conclude, "Individuals with high grandiose narcissism maintain unrealistically positive self?views with regard to intelligence. They feel that high intelligence is a resource that buys people benefits in multiple domains, and they feel that they possess that resource. Thus, people scoring high on grandiose narcissism are indeed preoccupied with the topic of intelligence."

This. It's the same thing that happens with college degrees. It's not a real accomplishment, but it's all they have so they pretend it's meaningful.

I hardly ever see any IQ threads anymore. It was really different two/three years ago when every second thread was about IQ.

Intelligence and how we define it is a really interesting and useful topic, especially as we get closer to developing more sophisticated AI

This study right here was the birth of the npc meme, IQ shouldn't matter. It's if you can actually think, that does.

Sadly, this. I do well on IQ tests, but I'm a failure in life. IQ may be an indicator of some potential, but someone who's a success in life should be beyond caring.

Insecurity and wanting to be better than other people. People here latch on to iq as a means of putting down other people because they are insecure about their own intelligence.

It's the exact opposite actually. People who score low on IQ tests tend to be more skeptical of them and more likely to question whether they actually measure intelligence and so on.

Because this board is full of midwits who need a good spanking and reminder that they still have much to learn.
See pic and the reactions to it to see how midwits behave when confronted(insults, sarcasm, strawman...)
Laws cannot be "randomly" generated. Intelligence lies behind those.
Hence, there is God.

It's the only thing underaged kids have to prove they are actually that "gifted kid"
It's also the only thing that can justify that superiority they feel when they talk to the average person

Tesla was against religious fanaticism, but yeah, I think he actually did say he was deeply religious in his heart.

Because low IQ people poison every domain in which they are granted agency. They adore kitsch like it's real art. They don't understand long-term goals with respect to their daily actions, nor do they have the capacity to plan anything in advance either way. They listen to the worst music and demand satisfaction for their meager intellectual achievements at every turn. The worst culprits are those in the 90-105 range, the prime midwits who desperately want to be considered smart.
