If you've watched a lot of streams or interviews with Hikaru, he gives little indication of being a big brain. Or even an average brain.

I used to watch a lot of his streams/videos, but I always thought he was just not taking himself seriously, being entertaining, "memeing and trolling". I thought it was his strategy to do unfiltered ADHD thoughts even when they don't make any sense, because that's what brings him viewers.

> being entertaining

Were you entertained when he publicly dissed his pregnant wife for her play in the recent US Championships?

I get it that lots of chess nerds enjoy this kind of thing, but that doesn't make it intelligent.

Or if you like tests ... he himself has mentioned not scoring well on an IQ test.
