Cult-like like Lesswrong or cult-like like Heaven's Gate and Scientology? I think a lot of futurology (and all of Kurtzweil) comes from a religious impulse and has more to do with new-agery and eschatology than science. I guess it is fine enough as a hobby. Since the class is about pop-culture and AI Kurtzweil is a good fit.
