I haven’t read tons of sci fi, but the best I’ve read about an escaping malevolent Super Intelligent AI is ā€œA Fire Upon the Deepā€ by Vernor Vinge. The part where it escapes is terrifying, quite frankly. Highly recommended.

@AstronutCymru @drbecky_ I read Govert Schilling’s book ā€˜The Hunt for Planet X’ but I hadn’t heard of Tony Simon’s book. I will have to look for it. Thanks for the tip!
