Something I thought about recently is what a "Top 10 Smartest People Alive" post would look like if I wrote one. I'm pretty sure it would be half "These are people who are experts in their field, who have demonstrated such a level of knowledge that their work has reshaped the way I think about fundamental topics," and half "These people draw anime art in a really horny but also kind of avant garde way and every time I see their art I go wow!!!"
