But it's not really humans which are going supercritical. It's It . True, we, or, more precisely, the whizzes who are creating It are the template for It , much like zeolite clays, ignorant though they are, were responsible for filtering organic molecules and making them react to provide myriad types which were then percolated through the organic soup to make life as we know it. Well, that's my theory anyway. It ] way of life complete with greed, fear and a minimal intelligence improvement from mean of 100 to maybe 120, on the scale of 0 to 10,000 has not developed more than negligibly compared with what cyberspace will be able to do. It will simply leave home and we will have the same relationship with it as chimpanzees have with us, or, more accurately, slugs have with us. We hardly cross each others' paths [if we mess with It 's processes, we should expect some slug poison or maybe a slight jolt of electricity to put us back on track, away from critical mechanisms].
