SF/판타지
This novel offers a lyrical discussion of the rights, roles, and obligations of citizens in society as artificial intelligence plays a growing role in our lives. It’s a philosophical reflection on how Google & Co. meddle with our individual lives and our relationships with each other, and the increasingly ubiquitous control they exert on the general circulation of information, ideas, and capital. It joins the ranks of other works of fiction that dive into these topics, such as Tim Maughan's Infinite Detail, Dave Eggers's The Every, Sherry Turkle's The Empathy Diaries, and Gary Shteyngart's Super Sad True Love Story. The author combines an unflinching look at the contemporary realities of class in the capitalist, consumer societies with a deep affection and caring for the humans who live in them. • This novel concentrates specifically on the pervaviseness of Google—in many respects the air that many of us in the United States and Europe breathe—in terms of ethics, morals, philosophy, and human values. • Gopegui dives into these topics with beautiful and thought-provoking prose. The story will resonate with people concerned about how the internet, and social media, impact our daily lives For readers of Machines Like Me, by Ian Mc Ewan and Klara and the Sun, by Kazuo Ishiguro, which are both similar in the way they care about our future and different because this novel does not focus on the nature of machines but rather, how we humans are machines—complex and fascinating but machines in the end, and how it is for precisely that reason that why we should be more careful, tender, and brave.
