Today, we have effectively mythologized "science" itself. In reality, science is fundamentally a cognitive paradigm — a standardized, systematic framework for understanding the world. Knowledge gained through this paradigm is far more reliable, repeatable, and verifiable than that produced by previous religious paradigms. The scientific paradigm is simply an upgraded iteration of the religious paradigm. Similarly, the algorithmic paradigm of the future will also be a cognitive paradigm. It is especially important to note that this is a cognitive paradigm for human groups and collective intelligence. In turn, the algorithmic paradigm represents an upgraded iteration of the scientific paradigm.
