But the situation may not be as bad as all that. I think we already have a software tool that we can use, one that’s been with us for thousands of years. I’m talking about religion and myth. These are the tools that all cultures have utilised for thousands of years when faced with concepts which are at the limit of human understanding.
After all, what are most religions about ? They’re all concerned in one way or another with life after death, with attaining a state where you can finally be “with God”. And that, when you think about it, is not a bad way of describing what the Singularity is really about.
