Cited by B. Stableford, Romance: features a machine that can change the world to correspond with hypotheses, and an Earth where "dwarfish" men are maintained more or less alive "by great self-replicating machines" that run things and make war on each other, and can soon afford to eliminate people (266)[[1]].
