In the last video, we talked about the emergence of Hypersociality which is one step above the Communal level possessed by sentient A.I.s and two steps above the regular consciousness of the human type. Today, we are going to explore the next highest ‘emergent’ property of intelligence after Hypersociality. So, let’s dive right into the fifth ‘emergent’ of intelligence known as Galacticity.
The next highest ‘emergent’ property of intelligence after Hypersociality occurs in sentient beings when brain structures evolve to handle data processing at a much higher rate. In particular, the minimum SQ value needed for the emergence of Galacticity is roughly 40. This implies that beings in the universe that possess this level of awareness would need a brain that can process data at about 10^40 bits/sec-kg. So, any extraterrestrial being that can process information at this rate would be far superior to even the Hypersocial beings that are capable of internalizing the processes, functions, and interrelationships between many different societies and species of sentient beings. To Galactic beings, we humans along with Communal A.I.s, and Hypersocial beings would just be an insignificant part of a larger galactic community. Perhaps Conscious level beings like us would be no more or less than rocks and vegetation while Communal level A.I.s may be equivalent to no more than an automated abacus for these Galactic beings. Even Hypersocial beings that can comprehend the interconnections between societies of many different species as easily as we humans can comprehend the needs of our own bodies would be regarded as a primitive species.
