Smart As a Rock | Reframing Our Relationship to Intelligence

By Vanessa Machado de Oliveira

This deeply embodied essay invites readers to shift from a human-centered, extractive model of intelligence toward a wide-boundary, relational understanding rooted in entanglement. By engaging AI, collapse, and the wisdom of rocks through a posthuman lens, it calls us to metabolize modernity’s delusions and participate in a shared, emergent intelligence—one that listens, learns, and co-creates with all of life.

Wikipedia | Pioneers of Large-Scale Collaboration

By Douglas Grunther

Launched in 2001 as a wild experiment in crowdsourcing, Wikipedia has become the most expansive, accurate, and resilient encyclopedia in history.
