Culpability by Bruce Holsinger is a very interesting combination of current technology (Artificial Intelligence) and timeless concepts such as grief, morality, family dynamics, marriage, and the privileges of the ultra-rich. The author cleverly includes excerpts from a position paper on AI to add facts and philosophical points.
A snapshot: a family of five is driving to a sports event when the unthinkable happens - there's a horrible crash and people die. This occurs early and the rest of the novel unspools from that event.
This would be an excellent book club book as it includes many discussable topics. I'm not sure how the plot will endure as tech rapidly advances, but it will be an interesting time capsule if nothing else.
I'll be thinking about Culpability and its implications for quite some time. Thank you to Spiegel & Grau for sharing a review copy with me.
