I explored this idea -- the next stage of sentient evolution -- in the epilogues of two of my books: Thumbs, Toes and Tears and Last Ape Standing. I call this next stage of human evolution Cyber sapiens. Thumbs and last Ape are non-fiction books. Just released is my novel Doppelgänger, which dramatically explores the rise of AI and the Singularity when a scientist downloads his own mind but then is forced to track down his own murderer. https://chipwalter.com/doppelganger. You all might find this interesting because now that we have created technology, evolution doesn't stop with biology. It operates in the technological world too. BTW. Both Last Ape and Thumbs are now available in Kindle Select and Kindle Unlimited.


I predict AI in the coming years will realize this to be true.
