My above comment still applies. And Derpy's does too, it isn't really important how dumb the average people are as long as the highly intelligent ones design our future. Also, I see that often the "brain shrinking" argument is used a lot. How is that evidence we're getting dumber? Several animals have bigger brains compared to us but they're still not even comparable in intelligence. What's important is the number of neuronal connections. How do you know they aren't just getting more efficient?
