This article explores the main factors that shape genius through a philosophical analysis of the intellectual activity of twentieth-century thinkers. The study investigates the interaction between hereditary predisposition, social environment, education, historical conditions, and creative consciousness in the emergence of extraordinary intellectual abilities. Special attention is paid to the philosophical interpretations of genius in the works and activities of prominent twentieth-century scientists, philosophers, artists, and innovators. The article argues that genius is not merely an innate gift but a complex multidimensional phenomenon formed through the dialectical relationship between biological potential, cultural context, and individual creativity. In addition, the paper examines how modern scientific and philosophical approaches contribute to understanding the nature of genius and the development of innovative thinking in contemporary society.
