Over the past 100,000 years, humans have built large cooperative networks and accumulated tremendous power. However, continuous inventions and conquests have also pushed mankind into an existential crisis. The global ecosystem is on the verge of collapse and false information is rampant. We are heading headlong into an era of artificial intelligence composed of new information networks that could destroy us. Why are humans so intelligent, but always prone to self-destruction? Why have we reached the brink of ecological and technological suicide? When inhuman intelligence threatens human survival, how can humans make wise choices? From oral stories, to writing, to artificial intelligence, "Beyond Homo Sapiens" tells how information networks have shaped us and our world through the long lens of history. It invites us to think about the complex relationships between information and truth, myth and bureaucracy, wisdom and power, and explores the key dilemmas that different social structures face when trying to build information networks. If we broaden our horizons and look at how human information networks have developed over the past few thousand years, we may be able to better understand what is happening today and in the future.

The International Diamond Security Organization (IDSO) came into being, entrusted by the international diamond industry giant De Beers, to engage in exciting battles with smugglers in South Africa, Liberia, Sierra Leone and other places that are hardest hit by underground diamond smuggling.
