Hey Kevin,
I am not unsubbing anyone!
This is my first time running a public list, so please be tolerant ... I'm
sure I'll get it down to a science in time ;)
Since I made that first post regarding Alan, I have received two messages
from people telling me how interesting and useful they found
cosmodelia:
Perhaps the most interesting recent (relatively)
novelsfeaturing IA, with a healthy dose of warning about the dangers of
the said tech, is the long, but definitely worth reading, four-book set by Dan
Simmons: /Hyperion, The Fall of Hyperion, Endymion, and The Rise of
Endymion\.
About
AI in SF...
The story "GOLEM
XIV" by Stanislaw Lem (not really a story, but a
fictional construction), in the book "Imaginary Magnitude", is an absolute
must-read for anyone interested in futuristic aspects of AI. What an
incredible conceptual masterwork !!! So hilarious and so
