Only the future will show how humanity will make the transformation to sustainable global civilizations possible, rooted in a mindset of later stages of consciousness, which is the premise for the great transition. In this presentation, I show why current AIs are operating mostly from ego-centric or ethnocentric levels of consciousness and argue why AI will never replace human consciousness. Furthermore, I will make the argument that a transdisciplinary transformation and multi- perspectival solutions in a global world ruled by highly intricate economic, social, and environmental interdependencies are occurring. Consciousness evolution and theoretical models such as Ken Wilber’s integral theory, Dave Snowden’s Cynefin model, and Donald Hoffman’s new definition of consciousness could provide deeper guidance. They demonstrate how to make better sense of the world to enable emergent action within the exponentially growing technologies, global complexity, and global threats. We do not have to succumb to the Law of Diminishing Results and let human civilization collapse, as in previous cultures. Now, for the first time in the history of human civilization, the Law of Accelerated Returns gives us a window of opportunity to develop to the next level of consciousness. But we must do the work, and it is not going to be easy.
