I know my other threads have been pretty bad, but I wanted to come on here to hypothesize with the community. I looked it up and didn't see much on what I was thinking, so here it is.

Dopamine drives reward, so frying it with short content and constant stimulation decrease sensor receptivity, therefore success or improvement in regular activity has a more limited reward. My point here is that since dopamine also drives learning, having weak receptivity can cause "low iq".

If you were to absolutely fry the receptors, motivation and improvement would hypothetically stagnate, right? So if that were true, then dopamine starvation (nothing at all to fill space and time, unless it be something you want to improve), would lead to rapid improvement and learning power compared to the former.

This is in off topic since I don't know if it's serious enough to put anywhere else, and if I should not have posted this because it's useless I will gladly delete it. Curious what people think.
