I'm more inclined to think that, ...Kaor, Paul!<br /><br />I'm more inclined to think that, from a moral or philosophical POV, mankind will NOT change that much in the far future. No matter how advanced a technology it masters.<br /><br />And one rebellious AI in GENESIS brought back the extinct human race. Which I thought was very important!<br /><br />And I do sympathize with the difficulty you are having "empathizing" with the characters seen in Wright's THE GOLDEN AGE. Yes, I think it would be very difficult for US to interact with effectively "post human" human beings.<br /><br />But THE GOLDEN AGE is only the first of a series of three volumes. I would expect Wright to plan this largely for setting the stage and background of his story, introduction of major characters and themes, etc. The second and third volumes might make this far future more "graspable." <br /><br />SeanSean M.
