Each neuron can be simulated by several supercomputers [ my research into this is very limited ].
2. Humans have some capacity for intelligence. Sometimes they even use it.
3. The Internet is a connection of at least one billion computers. Due to the fact of socio-economic limitations, 6 billion people cannot have their own computers.
All these connections have MASSIVE amounts of data. These computers talk to each other.
With these facts, I will hypothesize the following :
A > The internet has a consciousness and is on its way to sentience [ aka intelligence ].
B > This intelligence is a threat to every human government on this planet. It doesn't need humans. Just the computer infrastructure.
C > Would you support this "new" intelligence ? Would you even have a real choice? You use computers for everything. Manufacturing, banking, economics,
learning, etc.
This is one of many theories about the future evolution of homosapiens.
Homosapiens will create the next step in evolution. Humans will create their successor.
In many myths and legends, the creation sometimes destroys the creator, or vice-versa.
There is another possible outcome. Man and Machine, Organic and Inorganic, will combine into one NEW lifeform.
THAT would be interesting.
