There are 2 semi-conspiracy theories [1] [2], each of them is not very interesting per se, but the conjunction of those makes me to think hard. What are any ways to live in the world when we are doing both?<p>[1] There is going to become a technological singularity (which probably eliminates the human race because of a big set of problems, some of which are controversial or politically loaded).<p>[2] There are going to happen inter-civilization meetings (I mean all the UFO/alien hype before the age of cameras), but instead of keep waiting for the event which will never happen, because it has provably never happened, our civilization has to hit the road jack first.
