This just isnt true about "statistical chance". The IQ distributions are very different and a huge amount of the top talent emigrates anyway. 130 iq is order 1/100 in america and more than 1/1000 in india. Population difference doesnt make up the gap.
The elephant in the room: In the US, average East Asian IQ is 105, average white IQ is 99, average black IQ is 85-95. Nobody in politics can afford to admit that.
> Not surprising, since the very definition of "IQ 100" is average.
Average is not enough. If you have 10 people who have an IQ of 80 and one with an IQ of 300, that'd also average to 100. What matters here is the (roughly) gaussian distribution, too.
You can look it up yourself. I don't believe it either at one point and I did some digging and all the evidence points to a low IQ Indian population. There is of course very smart Indians but the distribution of the population as a whole is center around 82.
Edit: I don’t understand the downvotes. I don’t mean this in any disparaging way, just that an AGI is probably going to be a lot higher than that.
