“The ability of future superintelligent machines and enhanced humans alike to instantly transfer knowledge and directly share experiences with each other in digital format will lead to evolution of intelligence from relatively isolated individual minds to the global community of hyperconnected digital minds. The forthcoming phenomenon, the Syntellect Emergence, or the Cybernetic Singularity, is already seen on the horizon, when Digital Gaia, the global neural network of billions of hyperconnected humans and superintelligent machines, and trillions of sensors around the planet, 'wakes up' as a living, conscious superorganism. It is when, essentially, you yourself transcend to the higher Gaian Mind.” EvolutionTranscendenceDigital MindEvolution Of ConsciousnessSuperorganismCybernetic SingularitySyntellect EmergenceDigital Gaia Book:The Syntellect Hypothesis: Five Paradigms of the Mind's Evolution Source: The Syntellect Hypothesis: Five Paradigms of the Mind's Evolution
