A solid although already fairly outdated look at humanistic ethics as they encounter high-tech algorithms and global societal transformation.

Formulaic rehash of murderbot's curmudgeonly, angsty antics. Really nothing new or interesting other than having children giving mb hugs along the way. ...more

“A preoccupation with the next world clearly shows an inability to cope credibly with this one.”

“It's not that you should never love something so much that it can control you.

Raymond E. Feist, A Darkness at Sethanon

Kim Stanley Robinson
“Humans were still not only the cheapest robots around, but also, for many tasks, the only robots that could do the job. They were self-reproducing robots too. They showed up and worked generation after generation; give them 3000 calories a day and a few amenities, a little time off, and a strong jolt of fear, and you could work them at almost anything. Give them some ameliorative drugs and you had a working class, reified and coglike.”
Kim Stanley Robinson, 2312
