The question of the nature of the evolution of consciousness is considered. It is shown that the answer to this question can be given by considering the evolution of intelligence as one of the components of the complex structure of personality. It is proved that the evolution of intelligence is an objective process that continues and even accelerates at the present time. The basis for the proof is the theory of the formation of the transpersonal level of information processing, according to which interpersonal communication is interpreted as the exchange of signals between neurons located in different brains. As a result, a common neural network arises, and different transpersonal information objects are formed in it. The existence of a transpersonal level of information processing leads to the fact that the intellect of a person has a dual nature. It simultaneously has both an individual and a collective component. The fact, in particular, makes it possible to establish the nature of the collective unconscious. The collective component of intelligence is being transformed due to changes in the communication environment, including due to the rapid development of telecommunication and information technologies.
