High IQ families have delayed creating people because of "high IQ" and inherited their own excellent genes. On the other hand, those "lay people" who don't care about childbirth and education can only create human beings. The unexcellent genes continue to be passed on, and the descendants are endless.

Drinks instead of water, medical research directions are all spent on hair transplants and Viagra, watching vulgar and nutritious variety shows, only one piece of super large screen is content, and the rest are advertisements... Too much ridicule in movies has become today Reality. I really like the inner monologue of the male protagonist in prison. I found a time machine to tell people to read more, think more, and use more brains.

The luckiest thing is to be able to see what the world of the future will look like. The most desperate thing is that IQ has dropped so sharply that we don't even have a time machine to "predict". I never thought about how smart I would be, but after watching this movie...it's terrifying not to use your brain in the long run, maybe this is Einstein's perspective.
