“What if we’ve become less talented? Ingenuity, after all, depends on geniuses. But what if we have fewer geniuses?” President Obama called for a renewal of American ingenuity during last night’s SOTU. But what if we just don’t have as many geniuses anymore? Jonah Lehrer writes excellently (as always) on that thought.
