There is the Eschaton of Charlie Stross' "Singularity Sky" & "Iron Sunrise." Not a ton of detail there and I don't recall if Stross was even explicit about the big E being artificial. But I liked the idea that a future super-intelligence might gain some sort of vision-of-the-past ability and become very possessive of, or guarded about, use of technologies that might inhibit its own future creation.
