Yawn. I'm tired of dystopian fiction. We're likely to get something that is neither dystopia nor utopia, but somewhere in between.

I think that's the point, and it's refreshing to see. My takeaway is that even if everything goes as good as it possibly could go, there will still be a need for that human touch.

Just saying that everything is going to go to shit and one or two corporations will take over everything... Maybe, but I've heard that story already.

Dystopians are too easy. The real challenge and reward are interesting utopian novels.

All good stories set in utopias are set in places that are secretly dystopias.
