I went in knowing nothing and loved the reveals as you learn about what/who the main character was. I found the world building really interesting, as well as the philosophy and ethics. I also liked the nonlinear storytelling. The impact of events were stronger that way. 

Space opera.
Not much spoilers: I hadn't thought of myself as a fan of AI themes, but this made me realize it. I got a low-key Bladerunner vibe. It also reminded me of 'The Ship Who Sang' by Anne McCaffrey. Although it's been a long time since I read it.
