The Global Consciousness Project is a bold attempt to quantify the noosphere by testing whether collective human consciousness can influence physical systems like RNGs. Its methodology, involving a global network of RNGs and rigorous statistical analysis, has produced intriguing results, with a reported 7-sigma deviation suggesting non-random effects during global events. However, criticisms regarding selection bias, lack of a mechanistic explanation, and the parapsychological framework temper its scientific credibility. While the GCP and its successor, GCP 2.0, offer suggestive evidence for a noosphere-like phenomenon, they fall short of definitive proof, leaving the project as a fascinating but controversial exploration of consciousness. For further details, the project’s website (noosphere.princeton.edu) provides comprehensive data and resources.
