If you were the smartest person on Earth, then what would you invent and why?

Wow! Amighty's response was awesome. For myself I would invent a wisdom machine. It would be able to teach anybody the ability to think, while considering any and all factors, and help them to make the best decisions, not only for themselves, but for their children, parents, friends, neighbors, to the people who look up to you and who even look down at you. This would help people to give up selfish endeavors and promote the creation of better people, who would work to have a more sensible popultaion, and would spend their time improving themselves and the area around them rather than worrying so much about popular culture! With a few less people, more environmentally sound policies, more freedom and better judgement, the world could be a really great place to live!

Me?\n\nI don't think you can quantify such a thing. I am a scientist and work with many of the world's top minds in their specialized field. Could they manage to go grocery shopping on their own? No way, yet they can clone a cat. Go figure.\n\nA great author or poet is smart in one way, while a brilliant mathematician is smart in another.  \n\nI guess you want an all around Jack of All trades smart guy. Well Ken Jennings from Jeopardy has a lot of trivia knowledge and knows amny subjects, but no one would call him the smartest person on the planet.  Einstein was a great physicist yet he was a lousy artist.\n\nI think  you can be the best at somthing, but not the best at everything.

Albert Einstein. \n\nHe was very smart, intuitive, and a humanitarian. All of the things we need today.

i think the most useful invention to mankind would be electricity. without electricy, none of our current "conveniences" would be useful. without electricity, we would have no lights, no heat, no indoor hot water, no refrigeraation for food...electricity started it all and I feel it was and is the most useful to mankind.

Knowledge is POWER, \n If i interview you and ask you this I want to hear smart work,\nreason: If you find a way to do something faster and easier it can save time, money, and potential to risk. \n No one person can have all the answers but a smart peron can find the right answers. The turtle will always win.

I'd choose to be very very very smart in math and science so I could be like Bill Gates and D. Trump rolled into one person.

I would choose to be omniscient.\n\nIf I knew all, I would theoretically be capable of not only knowing 'why I am here', but be able to do anything.\n\n:-)

hey, a lot of people are really smart...\n\nArthur Conan Doyle wrote "The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes" etc... and he was one of the greatest detective before.\n\nAlbert Einstein discovered a lot of theories without using any experiment tools and stuff, so wouldn't anyone think it's neat?\n\nThe Couple Pierre and Marie Curie contributed a lot in the periodic table, so they could be big time geniuses themselves...\n\nBill Gates never graduated, but indeed he made what we're using right now, correct?\n\nwho knows? maybe someone might keep on dominating that role, and hopefully, he/she would be of much use to the whole world...

There are many brilliant people with little or no money.  Often being smart doesn't translate into the ability to earn a great deal of money.   \n\nI'm not sure what I could contribute if I was the smartest person .. cure for cancer?  peace in the middle east? or just the next best video game? \n\nIf I was the richest person in the world, then I could use my wealth to hire the smartest person in the world, and the next 100 smartest, too .. then fund cancer research,  donate to 'make a wish', provide good drinking water, food and vaccinations to the world's poorest countries, and so on.\n\nI guess that I would prefer to be the richest, then.
