What if an algorithm could predict your unborn child’s intelligence?

The problem is I know smart people who do very little because they are too lazy, and people who are not that smart but keep working on a problem until they solve it.

IQ is only the potential of a person, not the guaranteed result.

In fact, by that logic, its a negative correlation!

My old Engineering Professor noted that his B students were the successful ones that reached high levels in the real world.

What if? The USA, at least, is heading towards a fairly strict "human life begins at conception" legal stance. That makes abortions, and many birth control methods, into murder. USA citizens, at least, wouldn't be able to do anything about this. Less righteous countries would have an advantage in 20-30 years of selection for intelligence.

I think, from reading the article, the question seems more like what if it couldn't?
