    When I take stuff down, there's generally a reason for it. Hell, these
    days, the last thing I have left online that I still agree with is "Levels
    of Organization in General Intelligence", and in some ways even that's
    gone obsolete.

    I have no reason to speculate about whether Einstein fell under the
    long-gone rubric of Algernon's Law ("any simple intelligence enhancement
    is a net evolutionary disadvantage"), and incidentally, I don't buy that
    he had Asperger's.

    Sincerely,
    Eliezer-2003.
