post-cyberpunk

Post-cyberpunk is a subgenre of science fiction that evolved from cyberpunk, focusing on a more nuanced and optimistic view of technology's role in society. While cyberpunk often highlights dystopian futures marked by corporate control and social decay, post-cyberpunk explores themes like individual empowerment, complex ethical dilemmas, and societal adaptation to advanced technology. It emphasizes human resilience and the potential for positive change, often featuring diverse characters and richer storytelling. Overall, post-cyberpunk maintains technological advancements as integral but shifts away from dystopia, emphasizing coexistence and progress within a transformed world.
