If I had to top-down optimize civilization to maximize output of one thing, it would be rate of production of good light science fiction, where good is my personal opinion. What's your paperclip utility function?

Periods of prolific production of good science fiction have generally coincided with periods of robust expansion of the middle classes. And my definition of 'good' is generally middlebrow, widely popular stuff. Not connoisseur bullshit haute scifi.
