    Brain size and IQ are not necessarily correlated.

    Yeah, re-reading your previous post I see your point. And I agree, from that angle.

  3. Re:Megapixels aren't quality on Mobile Photography Set For Major Quality Bump With Sony's 48-Megapixel Sensor (newatlas.com) · · Score: 1

    There is a reason to that. Even full frame cameras which have much larger sensors, have a pixel size limit under which - due to lenses limitations - the quality does not improve (i.e. 64 MB pixels is actually worth only 16 MB, since the lense accuracy cannot yield more than the size of 4 pixels).
    So I'm really surprised they can pack 48 MB efficient pixels on those small camera sensors.

    Well, it relies on genetics as there is no much other ways to educate their "children" (some eggs abandoned to themselves). Yet, genetics is able to drive the brain construction and "teach" it to avoid some dangers. Not that stupid.

    This is more of natural selection... genetics takes time!

    And yet the fly adapts to so many different situations, flies,"eats", copulates etc.... that emphasizes how powerful the 3D brain structure is, and how our current AI is not.

    The International Association of Athletics Federations, track’s governing body, has rules about shoes, but they are vague: “Shoes must not be constructed so as to give athletes any unfair assistance or advantage.” It does not specify what such an advantage might be.
