do you feel that nowadays,there seems to be less geniuses than last time??

Question

i'm talking bout ppl like da vinci,socrates,einstein,van gouh and etc..they had such a huge impact on civilization..but nowadays i rarely hear bout ppl of such calibre..is the human race getting less intellectual?

Answer 1

They had a huge impact because humanity was still at a stage where there was sooo much to accomplish and discover. Now, our geniuses tend to be people who innovate technology, biomechanics, and work in labs.

Answer 2

I'm not quite sure when the "last time" was, but you should learn what is happening in physics and genetics.

Did you see those pictures of Mars? Someone's pretty smart to figure that out.
