First, I think the effects of marijuana vary greatly with the kind of marijuana you're smoking. There's two varieties most commonly smoked: C. sativa and C. indica (plus hybrids of these). I think they have very different effects on behavior. Furthermore, the speed and intensity of onset and the manner in which the drug is delivered can also have effects.
That said, I've found in many situations smoking pot makes me at least more eloquent, or more inclined to express complex ideas out loud. I think generally speaking I'm a pretty reserved person, but sometimes when I'm stoned I will bring the conversation to a pretty intimidating level of discourse.
On other occasions, I've found the opposite to be true: I find others (smokers) around me to be unusually insightful or witty, and I can't conceive of being anywhere near that clever. So, I'll say that pot CAN make you smarter, but this need not always be the case.
On the other hand, LSD almost uniformly makes you more insightful.
With regards to a lot of the above posts that suggest that pot kills brain cells, this is flatly untrue. A number of others suggest that pot is somehow part of the purview of the unintelligent. I don't have any solid ground to back this up, but my impression is that marijuana use cuts across all lines of class, intellect, and education. Certainly some of the smartest people I know - and probably some of the smartest people in the world - enjoy smoking pot.

well it makes You more honest. I've noticed that people some people that is seem to come up with a lot of neat stuff while under the influence of intoxicant and I must say if they aren't breaking any laws concerning then more power to 'em.
I guess we again have to consider what would have been produced without intoxicant and from there wouldn't it obtain that if you sat down to come up with the profound you would have with or without the intoxicant ... however intoxicant does help you to know when along comes the exceptional doesn't it?
Now for smarter... as in more acute?
And this is just an educated guess here the relaxation of the whole body to a mild degree is bound to put more oxygen in the head no?
So, I guess the question's answer is a definite yes after all is said and done isn't it?

No it doesn't. People think they are smarter and funnier when they are stoned...but in reality...they are just stoned.
I new a guy years ago, smoke marijuana quite a bit. He wound up dropping out of school and now he's in his late 30's he still can't read or write.

what it does is makes your body revert back you how you are just before you fall asleep. you know like when you dream about something you wasn't even thinking about? that's how it is but your awake to see your imagine run wild. i should know better than anyone (hehe).

its possible... i have this theory see...
by smoking pot, you slowly eliminate the weak brain cells in your head. this in turn makes your brain collectively faster hence making you smarter. Its like the concept of a herd of buffalo only being as fast as the slowest one. kill the slow one, and the heard is that much faster.
