Planetary-Scale Consciousness Networks Become Common becomes a defining milestone of post-biological civilization, helping intelligence move beyond fixed bodies, biological limits, and traditional forms of society.
Signals
- Shared cognition becomes stable across large populations
- Digital minds and AI systems operate as recognized participants
- Computation shifts from tools into civilization-scale intelligence
Implications
- Civilization can coordinate through thought-level networks
- Science and culture accelerate beyond biological limits
- Identity becomes increasingly networked and plural
