RE: [steemiq.me] Version 0.2 Release : User Interface Changes, Algorithm Changes
Fun tool but I'm not sure how accurately it measure IQ. For example, often the ability to write about difficult things at a lower grade level is a sign of high intelligence. Also, some posts that are at an extremely high grade level get marked as being at a 3.5 grade level :)

Great points! The current algorithm does not attempt at calculating academic intelligence but rather does an approximation based on writing quality. The piece that you posted has great academic content, but since it's just a video with some words it would not rate as highly as an academic journal. I do plan on having machine learning and RNNs to give this type of content a higher score, and contribution to IQ. But for now the algorithm does not differentiate between different types of text content.
