As Jordan Peterson likes to point out, the Army won’t take anyone with an IQ below 83 because they have found that with lower IQ it is virtually impossible to train anyone to do much of anything.

As AI gets better, that cutoff will rise.

At some point, a human will need an IQ of 100 or more to be useful. That’s average. Anyone “below average” just won’t be employable.

Think of the Bell Curve. Think of a demographic group that will, in general, not have any work at all. Think of cities burning because people are bored.
