Do you ever wonder if you're actually smart or that maybe you have this idea that you are smart simply because of the easy access of information to the internet? I often wonder to myself, am I actually intelligent or do I have a false sense of intelligence because of the internet? I don't know.

I believe "intelligence" is more than just knowing a lot about something. True intellect is a way of thinking. A genuis may not know anything about a subject that you know like the back of your hand. But the way they think about it, learn it, and apply it will completely dumbfound you. We may know our crafts inside out, but all that means is we studied and applied through experience. Knowledge /= Intelligence IMO.
