This recording is one single take of me talking, with no cuts. The questions are unedited.

Fine print:
1. I am not a testing psychologist.
2. I am not particularly interested in IQ as a measurement of intelligence, but it can be a useful metric just as height and weight are useful.
3. Questions are inspired by/adapted from a book called The Development of Intelligence in Children (The Binet-Simon Scale), by Alfred Binet and Theodore Simon, translated by Elizabeth S. Kite in 1916. Thank you to the Internet Archive—with funding from Microsoft Corporation—for digitising this in 2007. https://archive.org/details/developmentofint00bineuoft
4. It would not be ethical (and probably not legal, in relationship to IP) to disclose current IQ instrument questions. This video is not using the Stanford-Binet, it is instead the earliest version of Binet’s exploration into testing intelligence. The questions are from a publicly available resource, and I believe the questions are dissimilar to current IQ instrument questions.
5. This is a ‘best of’ some questions adapted from the above testing resource. I have skipped subtests and questions that would be difficult to articulate to an AI. I have skipped some subtests and questions that I know would be difficult to parse, or invite a poor response from an AI (for example, this 2021 AI version cant manipulate real world objects yet). IQ tests can have many questions, and can take several hours to administer, this is a shortened version for interest only.
6. As of 2021, I expect that it would not be simple to assess the intelligence of an AI using current IQ instrument design. We do not know the AI’s chronological age for population comparison, and there are some subtests where the AI would be easily in the top 0.01% of the world population (processing speed, memory), while other subtests may be far lower. I’d love to see new data on this when some international researcher dives in and makes it available!
7. Astra Nova School and Synthesis School are based on Ad Astra, a school funded by Elon Musk and designed by Joshua Dahn and team in 2014. The 2021 iterations are online and available to any child in the world who is accepted via the competitive admissions process: https://lifearchitect.com.au/ad-astra
