Intelligence is a unique thing

Is there anything that is more intelligent then other?

I do not think so. I will explain ina minute. To me intelligence is entity that ia same for everything or every one. There is no difference. For example gold is gold, it may have certain purity or weight but fundamentaly it is gold.

Some one intelligence may deemed more than other due its performance. For if some body lost his memory that does not mean that person is less intelligent. It just that that person cannot hold memory.

A monkey or a small animal has same intelligence that we have but there size, or speed etc may be less so we may be qucker then them but that does not mean that we are intelligent then them.

I hope you have got the clead idea now what i am trying to say.

Brain and decision making process

Can our brain think or does it mere process the available information?

Knowledge is a unique thing. There is no diffeence between Rat and Human brain. Both can do same if then else analysis and make decision.

I think difference is in available resources. For example available RAM, speed of motherboard bus speed, CPU cache etc etc. Fundamental of logic does not change but it change in speed or in probably in other dimention.

Now how we make decision?

Well probably we do not make decision but summarise all the available data and put it in a logical form or act upon it.

So better decision is not based on better brain but better information. Now where these information come from for making a decision.

From acquired data.
From education.
From family friends, TV radio etc.
From instinct( instict is a outcome of summerisation of historical data stored in gene. Involuntary information).

Now we understand why people say information is power. So probably rather than looking from brain power as a bilogical enhancement we should focus on exposure to information.

Information Addiction

As a human being I think we have addiction to the information we recieve.

For example if we are reading some astronomial website then we start reading more about it and we get edicted towards it. Similar thing can be said about any topic.

For example we are addicted to Celebrities stories. There is no benefit for us and it does not realy affect us directly. But knowing first part of the story addict us to know know second part of the story.

Careful manipulation of this addiction can be used to change people perception. In another word it is 'Brain wash'.

Because there is so much information and we only have one brain so we need to learn how to navigate through this information sea.
