Peter Watts Blindsight, Stephenson's Seveneves, and I hear good things about the Leviathan Wakes series.

Seveneves is incredible, as is Anathem and Cryptonomicon. I'm in the middle of Termination Shock and enjoying it as well.

if you haven't read Stevenson, you might enjoy. He kinda wrote about digital currency before bitcoin in Crytonomicon. Watts is also good, Blindsight is about unconscious intelligence, basically formed how I understood LLMs 10 years before I had to think about them 😅. I'd say they're both still p prescient and good reads. LMK if you get to them and what you think!
