Resolves to YES if the International Commission on Stratigraphy (ICS) designates a new geological epoch to reflect the influence of artificial intelligence on Earth by Dec. 31, 2060.
Possibles names for this new epoch could be the "Machinocene," "Novacene," or "Cybercene," though market resolution is based on the intention of the designation, not the specific name. If the ICS (and it's parent body, the IUGS) ceases to exist, decisions of its successor or another well-regarded geologic organization will be used for market resolution.
If instead of a new epoch, a new stage (or age), period, era, or eon is designated to the reflect the influence of artificial intelligence on earth, this market will still resolve YES.
