you know what...i am amazed that noone picks up that we have a planet scale network that could be exactly that (conscious)! The internet! we all send packets of information to various systems that then amplify thst data to other neurons... (us humans and our computers are the neurons in this situation)...

Edit: spelling grammar

With humans, the activity in the network results in coherent macro-level actions. With the internet, there is no such coherence. If the internet is conscious it is probably having a full-brain, 24/7 epilepsy seizure.
