Earl B. Hunt (January 8, 1933 – April 12 or 13, 2016) was an American psychologist specializing in the study of human and artificial intelligence. Within these fields he focused on individual differences in intelligence and the implications of these differences for the roles people play within a high-technology society. He was in partial retirement as emeritus professor of psychology and adjunct professor of computer science at the University of Washington at the time of his death. His book Will We Be Smart Enough? combines cognitive theory, demographic projections and psychometric research to measure the capabilities of tomorrow's workforce against the needs of tomorrow's workplace.

He was a former president of the International Society for Intelligence Research and was awarded the organisations Lifetime Achievement Award in 2009.
