Lem's Solaris is (among other things) a literary take on Wittgenstein's lion, might be an easier and more fun read. (I hear the George Clooney vehicle movie is actually good too, but different from the book.)
Regarding your Chinese Midwesterner lit, we do have the huge genre of Serge Leone and the Italian "spaghetti westerns" (and spaghetti was invented in China!)
Anyway, I don't want an AI remixing literary to make derivative literature. I want AI remixing news and culture to find subtle patterns and generating literature about that, which is what many great human writers too.

I read somewhere that Lem was unhappy with both (by Tarkovsky and Soderbergh) adaptations because they didn't put the if we encounter aliens they will be too alien to communicate idea front and center like he did. I agree with your last point, that would well-suited to criticism, too, maybe even better.
