#1 Ironically, "Artificial Stupidity", under that name, is regarded as one of the most difficult and advanced studies within Artificial Intelligence.

AI maxed out early in its capabilities, so its top experts created AS to get around AI's limitations. AS is needed to figure out and correct mistakes, intentionally making mistakes so that they can be identified.

#2 People are all born ignorant but they are not born stupid.

Statistically speaking, somebody somewhere was too born stupid. Except in the town where A Prairie Home Companion is set, where all the children are above average.
