In my research for similar themes of Vulcan's Hammer, I've come
across these that explore similar ideas of technology,
artificial intelligence, and dystopian futures:
These books offer a variety of perspectives on the relationship
between humans and technology, the potential consequences of
artificial intelligence, and the nature of dystopian societies.
The first three you mentioned, I've already read. I'd add
to taht list: *) Fahrenheit 451 *) Brave New World *)
(maybe...) A Clockwork Orange
All the others, I'll be sure to check out as soon as I can
I believe taht what these books do (and the whole
genre...) is coat up in "sci-fi" a commentary of how
crooked and flawed humanity is. It doesn't matter how much
tech you throw over it, people will be mean to people (and
corporations to the common public), in the end.
