What kind of books, novels or movies inspired you to be a better programmer?

I have asked this same question on this platform before, but then I realized this is one of those "Deja vu" kinda questions that never leave you, right! To reiterate, here are some of my favorites:

1. Matrix movie (Inspires intrigue and problem solving)
2. Iron Man movie (Inspires creativity, engineering)
3. Digital Fortress by Dan Brown (Digital Inspiration)
4. Books by Issac Asimov (Haven't read yet, but heard they're good?)
5. Interstellar, Passenger movies (Inspires a sense of wonder)
6. LOTR, HP (Pure entertainment and nostalgia!)
7. Artemis Fowl (Inspires digital maneuvering and engineering)

What are some of your favorite books and movies?

I do love Iron Man. One of my favorite movies, and definitely inspirational for the making mindset.

Yep, Jarvis is perhaps the fictional world cousin of ChatGPT though I'm not sure which one came first!
