I’ve been picking up random Tchaikovsky novels, and this one particularly charmed me. It’s a comedic, almost satirical take on a potential future with AI and robots.

The book explores various themes related to the value of work, what truly matters, and the perspectives of humanity from an outsider’s point of view. It’s also enjoyable to have an AI as a point-of-view character, as we grapple with the flaws in their directives and assumptions made by their programmers.

This book is quite a quick read, but it does delve into darker themes at times. I highly recommend it.
