Cyberpunk is a genre of science fiction where in the future a high-tech lifestyle is lived by low-class and low-moral people. Writers such as William Gibson, Pat Cadigan, Rudy Rucker, John Shirley and Bruce Sterling are primary authors associated with this genre.

It is not uncommon for a cyberpunk storyline to be dominated by the anti-hero archetype. Hackers and hookers (male hustlers as well as females) are commonplace in these works.
