Never read it myself, but I've always heard that a big progenitor for all of this is "Simulacra and Simulation," a pseudo-philosophical treatise by Jean Baudrillard.
If want want more fun stuff with the same general neighborhood of ideas, I'd recommend William Gibson's "Neuromancer." "Snow Crash" by Neal Stephenson is a logical next step in fun cybernonsense.
The Matrix Strange Days Johnny Mnemonic Dark City The Thirteenth Floor eXistenZ
is my short list for this kind of stuff, movies that are worth it. Not "good" necessarily, but if not good then fun at least.
And I had no idea it was based on a book so I can’t wait to read

Cool! I have Snow Crash in my mountain of unread books and I think I have Neuromancer. I think Netflix or prime are going to butcher…..I mean adapt it
