ive definitely read worse, and i wouldnt necessarily say this book is bad, but its not particularly interesting. dont make the mistake of trying to read this as scifi where the focus is on trying to discern what makes us human and different from the robots, the point is that humans destroy everything including each other. this reads as a pessimistic commentary on the futility of technological innovation and attempts at improvement because were so far gone the only place to go is worse.
