But when I read Sci-Fi, I'm consuming:
- The author's creativity and intelligence in extrapolating the technology's wider implications
- A good story, including character development
- Often some incredibly clever prose
- Possibly, as a very secondary thing, elements of "Hey, imagine if AI was complex enough to form human relationships!" (for example)
Here, I'm being offered the content of "Hey imagine if USB sticks were really cheap and you could just stick them on your computer like a post it!", but with the tone of "I created this thing: look how clever it is, here I am receiving an award for my ingenuity.
