I love Banks books. The Culture represents the most realistic vision of Heaven in my opinion.

The only possibility it could happen makes the risks of AGI and singularity acceptable, IMO.

Deep down it is the humanist version of Pascal’s wager:

It is unreasonable to not try achieving the Singularity as soon as possible, if it could have even the slightest chance of being good.
