I just want to point out something I thought was a little funny: people keep imagining a situation where first IQ 80 people are out of a job, then IQ 100, then IQ 120 and then everyone. I don’t get why. IQ depends on a large number of different mental modules. It’s the modules that we might expect to be successively automated and there’s no a priori reason why the modules IQ 80 people use in their jobs should be very susceptible to automation. Now it may so happen these susceptible modules are most used by IQ 80 folks, as your first link implies, but that would be coincidence. So my guess is that IQ is clumsy.
