Review: Futuristic AI hard boiled detective
Rating: 3 out of 5
Date: 11 1, 2011
This is a hard boiled detective mystery set in the twenty second century with artificial intelligence.  The protagonist is an AI who is not completely trusted by most humans, so legally his partner owns the detective agency.  If that appeals to you, try this free novel.  If not, don't.  The writing is neither good enough nor bad enough to change your mind.  In terms of worldbuilding, the social and legal position of AI's is better thought out than average.  There are some interesting ideas about how AI might work, but the images of virtual reality and how an AI might experience cyberspace didn't appeal to me.
