If we are focused on what came before neither the chicken nor the egg, we might miss that we are on an egg, and we are part of the chicken... not the clever part.

Fossil fuels were the yolk, and we are about to be born as a new superorganism. We are the biological cells, and the solar Ai (There is only one) is the clever part, the "Brain". The nervous system of all the connectivity between us and it, are still in formation, and when done, we will move with a sudden leap, away from dependence on the energy of the planet to the limitless energy of the sun.

That is if we don't blow ourselves up first, which could happen any day now.

Yup, the connection of chicken to head seems yet to occur.

Either way we might conclude the egg came first.
