Most people are not self reflective reflective enough to notice. Need to trust the studies.
Far more plausible than the AI ideas.
I find it far more likely these are smart people running without oversight for years pre-COVID, relying on being smart at 2am change windows. Now half or a full std. dev. lower on the IQ scale, hubris means fewer guard rails before change, and far lower ability to recover during change window.
I somehow doubt that if a majority of the population was a full standard deviation lower on the IQ scale that nobody would be talking about it, that there wouldn't be more research, and that it wouldn't be covered by the news whatsoever.
Keep in mind many parties benefit from capitalizing on hysterical hype. And you're going to sit here and tell me they're all keeping it covered up for some reason?
This comes off like the extreme left-wing equivalent of extreme right-wingers that say the "world is run by the evil jewish cabal" and when people ask for proof, they retort "everyone is hiding it so none exists".
How would a buildings and pest inspection have missed it?
Or, maybe he found it during inspections, knew he would never convince his wife to buy the house on the strength of the train set alone, but did managed to convince on the strength of the house... now he has to sell the lie?
I find more hallucination - like when you're taught as a child to reflect back the question at the start of your answer.
If I am not careful, and "asking the question" in a way that assumes X, often X is assumed by the LLM to be true. ChatGPT has gotten better at correcting this with its web searches.
I am able to get better results with Claude when I ask for answers that include links to the relevant authoritative source of information. But sometimes it still makes up stuff that is not in the source material.
Very nice.
