He addresses this point in detail at 13:00 onwards in the response video
Watch at 2x
18:59 JF addresses his problem with Psychology regarding predictability
JF's main attack on IQ just boils down to this
In other news
Royal Society entire catalog of scientific journals open access until Oct 27
I'll be astonished if JF can convince me in his response
Lets see
Yeah doesn't convince me one bit
He just does some strange rhetoric, doesn't address AH's criticism directly
Deflection, like a politician
He claims predictability in psychology doesn't exist because there's never a 1:1 replicability
This is absolutely wrong, there are in fact many 1:1 predictins when STDev is taken into account
@Monstrous Moonshine well IQ is one of the biggest predictors if success in life
It's THE number one predictor
^
I mean yeah you can question it sure, I’m sure there is some debate over it
actually, no. the #1 is family background.
IQ is simply #1 of psychological traits
No, it's still IQ
I'm trying to find the source for this
That being said, the growth mindset may actually outperform even IQ
https://www.weforum.org/agenda/2015/10/what-is-the-best-predictor-of-success/
But that is yet to be proven
k, so i stand corrected.
but i would think that the "growth mindset" is Trait: Conscientiousness: Industriousness ... which *does* lag behind IQ
at least as i understand it
Maybe yeah
This article here claims to know a few of the traits that also help for success

So it's not "IQ = success" and it's also not "low IQ = bad chances"
And it's also not "high IQ = good chances"
It's just one, and the strongest, of all known variables
Other factors could override IQ both positively and negatively
But one things's for sure
You do not want low IQ, even though it's not gonna determine your ultimate fate, it's best to have high IQ
basically
