The Culture series is a post scarcity society run by AI minds, they meddle in the affairs of other alien cultures and that asshat Elon Musk seem to like the stories but probably only like that there was AI ships that gave themselves odd names. He gives his spaceships names in a similar style.
I rather doubt he wants a society like Culture because without scarcity he would be equal to others and he wouldn't want that.
