In as little as five years, super smart people could be walking down the street; men and women who've paid to increase their intelligence.

Northwestern University neuroscientist and business professor Dr. Moran Cerf made that prediction, because he's working on a smart chip for the brain.

"Make it so that it has an internet connection, and goes to Wikipedia, and when I think this particular thought, it gives me the answer," he said.

Cerf is collaborating with Silicon Valley big wigs he'd rather not name.
