As an AI researcher who regularly attend NeurIPS, ICLR, ICML, AAAI (where I am shitposting from). The median AI researcher does not read science fiction, cyberpunk, etc. Most of them haven't read a proper book in over a decade.

Don't expect anyone building these systems to know what Bladerunner is, or "I have no mouth and I must scream" or any other great literature about the exact thing they are working on!
