In this book three of the series, the author presents to us a number of essays on the future scenarios of civilizational development in light of science and philosophy of technology, economics and sociology as well as what these accelerating changes mean to us as individuals.

As the author writes in the introduction to the book series: "When I first wrote and published 'The Syntellect Hypothesis: Five Paradigms of the Mind's Evolution' in January, 2019, I received lots of feedback from my friends, associates, and readers saying that it had come out to be too voluminous and thus rightfully deserving a ‘magnum opus’ designation for the scientific and philosophical discourse. At the same time, many suggested to break this work into several parts for easier reading and to get it adapted to general audience."

So, this book The Intelligence Supernova is part of the magnum opus, and simultaneously book three of The Science and Philosophy of Information series. However, the book contains some newly-introduced material and also can be read as a stand-alone book.

Alex M. Vikoulov is a futurist, digital philosopher, neo-transcendentalist, transhumanist singularitarian, cosmist, independent scholar, evolutionary extrapolist, consciousness researcher, media commentator, painter and author who lives in Burlingame, CA. Russian-born, immigrated to the U.S. in 1994, holds degrees in humanities, finance and economics. Earlier published works include “Is Reality A Simulation?” (2018), “The Syntellect Hypothesis: Five Paradigms of the Mind’s Evolution” (2019), The Origins of Us: Evolutionary Emergence and the Omega Point Cosmology (2019), The Physics of Time: D-Theory of Time & Temporal Mechanics (2019).

​"Let an ultraintelligent machine be defined as a machine that can far surpass all the intellectual activities of any man however clever. Since the design of machines is one of these intellectual activities, an ultraintelligent machine could design even better machines; there would then unquestionably be an ‘intelligence explosion,’ and the intelligence of man would be left far behind. Thus the first ultraintelligent machine is the last invention that man need ever make, provided that the machine is docile enough to tell us how to keep it under control.” -I.J.Good. This is the opening quote to volume three of The Science and Philosophy of Information series.

In his foreword Dr. Antonin Tuynman writes: "As progress in artificial intelligence, nanotechnology, and robotics is becoming more pronounced, it may not be impossible that we'll see the birth of strong AI... As soon as AI systems will become capable of improving themselves, this may herald the advent of a new era of an Intelligence Supernova, a cognitive and silicon variant of the Cambrian explosion."

And here's another revelatory passage from the book: "As cyberhumans, we’ll use virtual spacetime continuums as a new habitat and the physical universe would be used mostly for converting the 'dumb' matter into computronium. The Intelligence Supernova wouldn't happen simultaneously for everyone at once, though. Some people may choose to stay in their biological form longer than others who would choose to 'migrate' to the Metaverse. For individual human minds, this 'Novacene' event would basically signify a 'pseudo-death,' i.e. self-transcendence. It's when you suddenly become 'someone bigger'."
