> we conducted a 2024 study in which groups of 35 randomly selected people were tasked with taking IQ test questions together in real-time as AI-facilitated “conversational swarms.” As published this year, the groups averaged IQ scores of 128 (the 97th percentile).

I am not sure this is a strong result. Wouldn’t we expect a group of 35 randomly chosen humans to contain someone at or exceeding the 97th percentile for IQ?
