I'm too materialistic for taking those views seriously, but I recommend a nice Science Fiction book that deal with this: "Distress" by Greg Egan [1]. 1. http://www.gregegan.net/DISTRESS/DISTRESS.html
……《和平之战》(The Peace War)、《实时放逐》(Marooned in Realtime)。都是很棒的小说,但如果你以前没读过弗诺·文奇(Vinge),建议从《深渊上的火》(A Fire Upon the Deep,我是 2008 年读的)开始,那是最好的入门作品。还有格雷格·伊根(Greg Egan),《置换之形》(Diaspora)、《隔离》(Quarantine)、《苦恼》(Distress)。Egan 是目前最牛的硬科幻作家。《Diaspora》对共享模拟现实的构想非常迷人,跟通常的套路截然不同。《Quarantine》则会唤醒你内心的量子力学……
…Peace War, Marooned in Realtime. All great novels, but start from A Fire Upon the Deep (I read that in 2008) if you haven't read Vinge before, it's the best introduction. Greg Egan, Diaspora, Quarantine, Distress. Egan is the best hardcore SF author out there. _Diaspora_ is a fascinating take on shared simulated reality that's very different from the usual fare.

Try Greg Egan's Distress for an interesting take on an artificial island without a government in the Pacific called "Stateless". (Plus the Theory-of-Everything, future media, genderless humans and autistic-spectrum rights).
……如果“治愈”是可选的,那倒不是问题。但在过去,政治异见曾被归类为一种疾病。比如在苏联就是这样。性取向也是如此。在格雷格·伊根(Greg Egan)的科幻小说《苦恼》(Distress)中,有一个角色是高功能自闭症患者,但他不想被“治愈”。书就在我手边。自从读了之后这个想法就一直盘旋在我脑海里:“最居高临下的……是什么

我太唯物主义了,没法认真对待那些观点,不过我推荐一本探讨这个问题的优秀科幻小说:Greg Egan 的《Distress》[1]。1. http://www.gregegan.net/DISTRESS/DISTRESS.html

这个想法在 Greg Egan 的小说《Distress》里作为反乌托邦元素出现过。小说写得极好,但这个想法着实让人毛骨悚然。
This idea features in Greg Egan's novel "Distress" as one of the dystopian elements. It's a great novel; but this idea is pretty horrifying.
去读读 Greg Egan 的《Distress》吧,里面对太平洋上一座名为“无国之岛”(Stateless)的无政府人工岛的设定非常有趣。(外加大一统理论(Theory-of-Everything)、未来媒体、无性别者以及自闭症谱系群体的权益)。

还有 Egan 的另一本书《Distress》。那本书对楼主的第二个观点做了更深入的探讨——其实不需要把一切都计算出来。
And Egan's other book Distress. Which goes further into the OP's second point. Not actually needing to calculate everything.
