A good day to you, Valerey_Alyokhin.

The opposites or antonyms of the word "wise" are 'silly/foolish/stupid'.

Someone who is the opposite of wise who is unable to make a good decision or who is not smart enough.

For instance, we can say "I trust my mom to make wise decisions because she has many life experiences to learn from." 

Oppositely, "As a teenager, I made some foolish decisions that I could only look back now to learn from."
