No but William Gibson does have a bunch of near future novels that i recommend
I think with ChatGPT and Tinder getting in bed together recently as well as advertisers creating their own AI influencers, the book Idoru is probably a pretty decent read for anyone who wants to give him a try
Lmao wtf is this real?

I’d have absolutely believed this could have been a book by them
