I mean I'm not driven to be "smarter", whatever that is. I am immersed in finding out more about everything that interests me.
Like I don't read to be well read. I don't listen to news to be informed. I read and listen out of my interests.

I don't think anyone literally thinks, I need to know this to improve my intelligence as it is a weakness. It's usually more abstract.
