You need three variables: intelligence, conscientiousness, and curiosity.
The sterotypical people Beet is talking about are high-intelligence, high-conscientious, but low-curiosity.
That's why they know the stuff they learned in school (they were smart enough to grasp it and diligent enough to put in the work) but they know nothing that wasn't assigned in class because they don't value learning things for the sake of knowing things, instead of learning things to get a grade.
