My conclusion was that we are already in an era where posthuman superorganisms are running things – we just know them as markets, nations, companies or blogging cliques
However, so far these superorganisms have evolved by trial and error, and often not in the direction of greater intelligence (just consider how cognitive biases are often built into or promoted in institutions for reasons that make sense on the individual human level but make the institution pretty incompetent). With new media and new awareness of distributed cognition we might actually start seeing much smarter cloud intelligences. And we will be in them.
