Not all kinds of intelligence are bound to biology. Some forms can be separated from the brain and rebuilt in other systems. Once we understand how thinking truly works, we won’t just create smarter machines—we’ll open the door to new kinds of minds, built from code instead of cells.

These minds could reshape how human societies live, learn, and grow. If we get it right, we won't just improve tools—we'll rethink education, decision-making, and even what it means to be alive. The future isn’t about replacing humans, but expanding what intelligence can be—and who gets to use it.
