Rainbows End by Vernor Vinge and Accelerando by Charles Stross both have a lot of parallels with current AI and Internet developments, and are great books to boot. Accelerando has free ebook versions available, which I am happy to share, thanks to the author and publisher. I can’t recommend cstross highly enough. Vinge needs no introduction, though the work mentioned is somewhat less well known and later than his more renowned works.
