(created 2026-02-20) containing a multi-speaker discussion. Participants labeled SPEAKER A, SPEAKER B, and SPEAKER C debate estimated LLM IQ scores over time (roughly 70 in 2023, rising through 90–115 by 2025 and described as 'genius level' by 2026), reference GPT-4 improvements, and discuss whether AI will surpass human intelligence. The excerpt appears to be a conversational back-and-forth about AI capabilities and team perceptions.
What do you think the LLM IQ scores were on average in 2023?
100, 110, 90. I don't know, somewhere around there. Let's go 90 to 110.
Okay. Which is like, you know, that's actually average is 100. Okay. Let's go a little more. 2024, what do you think it was?
I would go with maybe 120s and I would say today is probably closer to 130 to 140. Okay.
So pretty accurate here. Let me pull this up real quick because yesterday some of my team was like, they're just robots. They're just robots. I was like, are you kidding me? And I'll explain why I said, are you kidding me? Because it's like, oh, we think just because we're the creator, we're gonna be smarter than it forever. But check this out over here.
No way it'll be smarter than humans.
We're on the same page. I'm like, it's just gonna crush our intelligence, right? Look at this, 70. Okay, then it jumped up to— 70 was initially 2023, and then GPT-4 was right in the middle of 2023, 2024, it jumped up to like 90. And then you go a little more to like early 2024, 100. And then last year, 2025, it jumped up to about 115 or so. And then now we're talking 2026, it's basically genius level. Okay,
