Stupid writers cannot write smart characters and I'd really wish they'd stop trying.
@RegalBeagle It's always some retarded caricature, like a guy who memorized 1000 digits of pi. That's not what smart people actually do.

One of the best depictions of super-intelligence and what that might look like from the inside view can be found in a short story by sci-fi writer Ted Chiang.
The story is called "Understand" and you can find it in his anthologies, or as a free audiobook on the internet archive here: https://archive.org/details/TedChiangUnderstand
Very cool and unique story.
Nice, I'll be sure to check that out.
@UncleIroh @Mongoliaboo I'll check it out. The author won the Asimov Prize. My favorite Asimov short story is 'All the troubles of the world'. It has one of the first takes on AI being written in 1958 and has quite the twist ending.
