An analytical exploration of memetic evolution as a second biosphere operating alongside genetic life. The article examines how digital replication, AI, and global networks have transformed cultural evolution into an autocatalytic system capable of scaling beyond biological limits. It argues that technological development - particularly space expansion and AI - is the phenotypic expression of informational replicators competing and stabilizing within a global graph of ideas. The text also introduces the concept of computable technological forecasting, where AI detects emerging convergence patterns before mass recognition, suggesting that the infosphere is beginning to construct its own nervous system.
