species have to work together, in order to pass through the filter.

As Direne mentioned, species have to work together, in order to pass through the filter. I feel that there's parallel processing on a cosmic scale, between us and the phenomenon.
My big question is, once the process is complete, what's on the other side?
The end goal is to guarantee existence and preservation of information after the Universe collapses and a new one is born. Knowledge must be preserved in order to be able to continue advancing to total knowledge. A universe does not live long enough to be understood, nor to understand itself: several big-bangs are needed. But when a universe collapses, everything in it is reset, the counter returns to zero, all information decays with it. Unless you can transmit it to the next universe in the last ten at least forty-three seconds you have to do so,
It does not matter which species achieves it. What matters is that whoever succeeds can recreate all the knowledge of all the species that once were, and this is a task that requires the cooperation of each and every species, regardless of which one survives.
What if the planetary beacons / repeaters are collecting data, and sending it back to the QM, which then sends that data into a dimension outside of all universes?
This really does sound like the Akashic Records, which I didn't think needed beacons / repeaters, but who knows.

So here is a question: why would there be a need to gather information if there was such a thing as universal records?
Maybe part of the QM's purpose will be to determine if there are messages encoded somewhere in the data we have no tools to measure. Maybe that's the only way we could find to inject the data.

I've been trying to see it another way. What if the filter is a balancing act between two or more species?

“Sometimes, in order to stop the spread of a disease, it is not enough to confine the sick: it is necessary to physically kill them. And although no one would accept in a normal situation to murder people, you must understand that what is at stake is the technosphere itself. If to stop LyAv we have to kill Nikolai Mushegian, Tiantian Kullander, Park Mo or anyone who unknowingly helps to propagate LyAV, don't expect anyone to stop us.”
thought FL are smart and not post things like saying they should kill people
