Is there a limit to how smart someone can be?
No insulting or teasing comments, please. This is a deep, respectful discussion. Thank you! <3

I don't think there are any limits, we are always learning and growing everyday, that's the beauty of knowledge and intelligence comes in so many different forms š„°
On the Stanford-Binet IQ scale a score of 200 is commonly accepted as the highest possible one a human mind can achieve. (For context, a score of 160 or more is genius level...Einstein's score was not 170, if I recall correctly)

@CosmicMelody Interesting...What is your source for this info? (Would like to read it myself)
@slowdecline48
You don't know how much I haunted the website before asking ChatGPT to find it for me XD
My source of information was this website ANDĀ a video on YouTube, which I am not gettingĀ
here's theĀ website
I see. An interesting blog...it's no surprise about Malcolm Gladwell. He is a very popular writer. If you don't write in one of the fictional genres, the time-honored ways to sell a lot of copies include oversimplifying &/or decontextualizing complex truths into a message that most people find appealing. Gladwell isn't the first popsci writer to make a name for himself by doing so.

biologically yes. Our brain š§ can only store a specific amount of data. But what makes people smarter than others is basically flexibility [wiring of neurons]. something neurologists call neuroplasticity.
