Ask HN: Recommendations for Computer-Science Fiction?

1 points by smarterchild 11 years ago · 1 comment · 1 min read


In this recent post (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=9447097), the author talks about CS works that seem so advanced as to be science fiction. The following quote comes up:

> This term stands in contrast to Computer-Science Fiction, which is indeed fiction about computer science.

Any recommendations for Computer-Science Fiction, that is, interesting, well-written fiction about CS? I'd love to read good fiction that tackles hard CS in an informed way.

Vernor Vinge's Rainbows End deals with the occurrence of an AI singularity (among other things).
