The Neuromancer trilogy is great. At least post-singularity AIs appear to be uninterested in humanity.

Rudy Rucker also has a bunch of brain-benders that bent my brain so hard I can't name them.

I think Singularity Skies pales in comparison with the depth and breadth of Accelerando.

Ender's Game and Foundation are timeless classics, and I suspect, Accelerando will eventually become one.
