Isn't IQ defined by coercing test results into a normal curve with a mean of 100? The reality can't be that IQ is rising, because IQ is always 100.
Even without that, IQ is a measure of people's ability to take IQ tests; it's not particularly correlated with being smart or stupid, but instead your familiarity with the language used in the test, and practice at doing tests, especially IQ tests
