One option is a giant brain, like Stapledon's Fourth Men, that acts as adviser-angel for the modosophont population.I really love that idea! I think Stapledon has a wonderful imagination. But note that the Fourth Men are men with "no emotions" they incarnate the trope of rationality at all costs.
They created the Fifth Men that have a rich emotional spectrum knowing nothing about emotions. only for what they read in books. (Or at least this is how i remember them).
