“In a seemingly deserted island, Dr. Eliezer Yudkowski [sic] and his artificial intelligence drones and cohorts wage a war to keep their circular narrative from ending. Their only weapon? The hope that humanity can finally evolve.”

That’s the premise of a play dealing with AI and the Singularity called “Yudkowski Returns: The Rise And Fall And Rise Again of Dr. Eliezer Yudkowski,” running at The Pretentious Festival in New York City later in July and reviewed here.

The real-world Yudkowsky’s non-postmodern thoughts on the Singularity and friendly AI can be found here.
