I cant help thinking Douglas Adams brought this exact problem up ages ago when Deep Thought found the Answer to Life, The Universe and Everything. As Adams pointed out the answer is sometimes useless because the process (or the question) was incomprehensible to the "beings" who sought the answer. Then later when Earth is destroyed before the Answer is calculated he makes an even stronger point: It doesnt matter The answer gave occupation to the philosophers for years before it was discovered, it provided millions of years of purpose for the "mice" in finding the answer. And Ultimately the lack of the answer didnt matter anyway. Perhaps we can just accept the answer (knowing that it could be innacurate and keeping an eye out for indicators) and make use of it? Surely that is more worthwhile - it's something of a leap to completely trust the computer, but it seems more dangerous to refuse to trust it at all :)
