Oh I don’t think they where at all. One of my favorite quotes is from George Carlin “think about how dumb the average person is, then realize that half of all people are dumber than that guy” I would wager though that grampas generation garnered much more street smarts and basic understandings of the world than the current youth. But I won’t argue that they where more intelligent by any means. We’re smarter today than humans have ever been. But like you said. That’s kind of a constant in humanity, of course we’re smarter now.
