People are gradually getting smarter due to diet (brain requires calories), but also dumber. Average IQ 100 years ago, compared to today, was about 80. RETARDED.
But.... If you gave someone from 100 years ago a microwave and asked them to set the clock, they'd read the manual, and figure it out.
I daydreamed what it'd be like if say George Washington was here today. Would he be shocked by light bulbs and TVs and phones? sure, but he'd grow to it quickly and then learn about it. More appreciating the idea of a tiny device that holds all the information in the world and can contact anyone on the planet. They'd appreciate what we take for granted.
He's not intelligent, but he's thoughtful.
