Themes of Science Fiction

Themes of science fiction often explore the impact of technology and scientific advances on society, identity, and ethics. Common themes include humanity’s relationship with machines and artificial intelligence, the consequences of space exploration, the nature of reality, and potential future societies. These stories often examine how technological progress can both solve and create problems, challenge our understanding of what it means to be human, and envision alternate futures. By doing so, science fiction encourages reflection on current scientific innovation, ethical dilemmas, and the societal changes they could bring.
