Reply to comment by HistoricallyFunny in Human Intelligence augmentation is probably more dangerous than regular AI by [deleted]

So if we augment everyone's IQ to be very high, then do you believe that there will no longer be any violence?

With examples like Genghis Khan, I worry that in some circumstances violence is optimal (perhaps if done in secret or in a clever way) as a means of gaining or protecting power, for example. It would be concerning if violence is not actually directly inversely correlated with IQ, but rather a different quality or set of qualities.
