Former President Donald Trump said he'd "absolutely" be up for adding Elon Musk to his cabinet though he believes Musk will serve more as a consultant.

No, because temperature actually is a valid and reliable measure of heat. IQ tests are neither valid nor reliable. Most of their use has been co-opted by racists seeking to prove a point about minority groups. They are not a measure of intelligence, and should not be used as such. Broadly speaking, human intelligence is too vast and complex to be easily reduced to a three digit number.
Aside from creativity (which elon also excels at) and social intelligence (which he does not - or does he) it is a good predictor of intelligence. I mean psychologist or not, you can argue it til you’re blue in the face but tests measure aptitude, there’s a reason the entire world uses them. Saying someone is “good at tests but not good at the thing” is just a lazy argument.
Temperature measures heat, which is one of many indicators of how it’ll feel outside. IQ tests measure “reasoning/problem solving, memory, pattern recognition, and information processing speed.” As a psychologist you know that already! Those are a few of the many indicators of a persons intelligence! See how that works?
Carry on!
Is it perfect? Obviously not! But to say it’s inaccurate is just wrong.

Signed, an incredibly annoyed psychologist.
