This manifesto records the structural crisis of the university in the age of widespread artificial intelligence deployment. The author argues that the debate on the ethics of AI in education ended before it began: once the cost of an "artificial" lecturer falls below two to three annual professorial salaries, the decision to deploy it will be taken neither by educators nor by ministries, but by those who sign the budgets. The text traces the disappearance of the diploma as a social document, the collapse of accreditation structures, the splitting of the university into two incompatible systems — mass-automated and tiny-elite — and the devaluation of intellectual labour as a market category. The central thesis: the new class boundary will run not through access to knowledge, but through the capacity to hold one's consciousness apart from the machine. This is not a call to resistance, but a stocktaking of the horizon and a positioning of professorial dignity once the old contract between the individual, the university, and the market has been broken. Keywords: philosophy of education, artificial intelligence, future of universities, intellectual labour, epistemic stratification, post-credential society, digital inequality.

There has been analyzed a phenomenon of global consciousness, and its cultural and historical, civilizational dimensions have been substantiated. There has been demonstrated that the concept of planetary consciousness, global thinking, noosphere was described for the first time in the philosophy of cosmism. However, in modern conditions ideas of representatives of the naturalistic philosophical direction of cosmism have not lost their heuristic potential. They can be reconsidered in a new fashion within the context of emerging anthropomorphic networks. There has been proved that global consciousness is a component of the social and cultural potential of global information networks defining vectors to prospects of humanity progress in the 21st century. Relying on methodology of the structural and functional analysis, the author arrives at a conclusion about global networks obtaining the status of representatives of global consciousness. This is the area of networks where all relevant information is concentrated – from statistical data to scientific and technical information. Access to these data is limited by human abilities and is realized in the form of discrete requests with using heuristic algorithms of information procession. A suggestion is introduced considering the fact that modern society being a self-organized system seeks to gain stable condition. Anthropomorphic networks are means of decreasing social entropy, which is growing as a result of any kind of human intervention into social processes. Thus, for the first time a human is challenged by their intellect, ability to create, discover and control.
