What does it mean for a human to properly orient their lives around the Singularity, to update on upcoming accelerating technological changes?
This is a hard problem I’ve grappled with for years.
It’s similar to another question I think about, but with regards to downsides: if you in fact knew Doom was coming, in the form of World War 3 or whatever GCR is strong enough to upset civilization, then what in fact should you do? Drastic action is required. For this, I think the solution is on the order of building an off-grid colony that can survive, assuming one can’t prevent the Doom. It’s still hard to act on that, though. What is it like to go against the grain in order to do that?
