I hope I didn’t make it sound like I think it would be some iterative invention like a better mouse trap, or some isolated Eureka! moment from someone who just thought hard for a bit. Perhaps that’s possible, but it feels unlikely. On the contrary, it would likely be a fundamental shift in our mode of thought and mode of explanation, less like huge discoveries like general relativity or quantum mechanics, and more like the Scientific Revolution or the Enlightenment.
