what will be the next civilization

Frist Civilization 

Through the course of many thousand years of time the consciousness of Homo sapiens also evolve and they started to invent different kind of tools for their survival and also obtaining of food. Every other invention hold equal importance in making the humans civilization fittest enough to be able to control most of the available resources of energy present in the planet earth.

One stand out invention which forms the basis for the formation of today’s advance human civilization is wheel   in Mesopotamia (modern-day Iraq) around 3500 BCE.

It was the invention of wheel through which the human civilization became able to convert different kind of energy into useful work and they also overcome the intrinsic restive force of gravity and friction. So it can be said that wheel is the building block which through modification over period of more than 5000 years of time, eventually leads to industrial revolution and all the developments and technological advancement which follows the industrial revolution.

So I categorize all the civilizations till mid 20^th century as first civilization, because through the course of time till then humans sought to ease their physical burdens only, through tools and technologies.

Second Civilization

In the  mid of 20^th  century, for the first time human civilization try to make invention which will make   ease in their cognitive burden, so the building block of the second civilization was invented. The term "artificial intelligence" was coined in 1955 by John McCarthy, who is often regarded as one of the founding figures of AI. The Dartmouth Conference, held in 1956, is considered a milestone in the history of AI, as it brought together researchers and scientists to discuss the potential of creating machines that could simulate human intelligence.

The late 1950s through the 1960s was a time of creation. From programming languages that are still in use to this day, to books and films that explored the idea of robots and AI became mainstream idea quickly. From the  time in 1965,when Edward Feigenbaum and Joshua Lederberg created the first “expert system” which was a form of AI programmed to replicate the thinking and decision-making abilities of human experts, till today  when there is humanoid robot Sophia , which hash realistic human appearance and ability to see and replicate emotion to Chatgpt, which can create code , poetry ,writing task ,process and understand images the AI has developed  a long way in very short span of time.

On the basis of the foundation which was laid in short span of 70 years, one can imagine that how far the civilization will advance by the combine effort of human intelligence and artificial intelligence, and how much of the energy present in  the solar system they will be able to convert into useful work
