I'm not too well read so Mars Express is the first fiction where I came across these themes. Highly recommend. When I watched it 18 months ago I didn't realize real development was ongoing in these scifi-seeming fields
To both of you I highly recommend watching Mars Express (2023 movie). It might not always be as straightforward.
You get something like Mars Express [1].

> The inspiration for the organic machines and weapons in the film leads back to the director hearing that Google was working on technology for skin cells. This led to the idea that ultimately tech would complete a full circle back to organics, something "close to us, but at the same time, they are monsters." He also tied the replacement of the robots with organics to planned obsolescence, which he wanted to lampoon.
That looks pretty cool! The art on the poster reminds me of Mœbius aka Jean Giraud, which makes sense as they’re both French, and Mœbius is world-famous, besides. It’s a shame it’s only a film, though I won’t be too picky!

Sort of reminds me of Metallic Rouge?

Not sure if it fits "anime" but the recent animation movie Mars Express is quite good, hugue GitS vibes, tho I don't recommend watching it in the original french even if you speak french like me, french dubs are horribles.
