In some ways, a screen adaptation make less sense with every passing year.

I normally agree, but with AI agents I find myself thinking about Neuromancer frequently. Somedays I feel like a Netrunner with what my AI and I can do. I am also now getting slightly paranoid of what other people and their AIs can do. I bought a 'deck' (GPU) for the first time in a decade and my office glows with color and once again has the reassuring sound of whirring fans. I've attempted to secure my network like I never have before and have my AI watching over it. It can take some automated actions but not enough for it to automatically defend...yet. Maybe I feel more like a shitty Netrunner at this point :)

Even posts about hacking into your own air purifier[1] make me feel like we have the power again. Some of that naive? 90's era optimism. Regardless, I hope the show is good!
