I think what will be the nail in the coffin for IQ tests is the fact that I'm sure we could train some deep learning algorithm to really Ace them. Like and then we'll have to say well is the deep learning algorithm intelligent? I think the answer is no. So we might have to question what do those IQ tests really measure.

Good thing is how that will create opportunity for next generation of IQ tests that are really focused on human intelligence... but as AI improves that slice of the pie that's valid may get really narrow in a weird and niche way. and so we may end up doing these strange tests that are really bizarre but somehow the data says they reflect our innate human intelligence.
