The classic Slow Tuesday Night (1965) by R. A. Lafferty. Sort of post-singularity. I liked the part where they use an AI-assisted ghostwriting machine to spit out a scholarly text in seconds. (People who buy it just read the quick summary.)

Vaguely similar but slower: Vernor Vinge's Fast Times At Fairmont High and Rainbows End. https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/5393037-fast-times-at-fa...
THANK YOU! That was it.
The hive mind never sleeps. ;-)
