Yeah, Fire upon the Deep had literally the best first chapter of any AI-based scifi book I'd ever read (I listened to the audiobook).

I really wish Vinge would revisit that universe - Deepness in the Sky was great but it was a prequel of sorts.

Vinge did write a sequel to The Fire Upon the Deep. The title of the sequel is "The Children of the Sky".
