have computers not transformed the free-love utopia of the 1970s into the technocratic hellhole that it is today?

I'd say more like the fear of Computers in 1999, where a portion of people also though the machines would rise because they couldn't comprehend a new millennia on their clock.

People have been writing stories about AI becoming a serious threat since at least the 50s.

Except fear of computers turned out to be ignorant nonsense, while AI has already been used to try and remove the need for writers and artists and will continue to be.

The threat isnt that it will become Skynet. Its much more mundane than that - itll just increase unemployment and make scamming people easier than ever. So basically, exactly what the ruling class want.

AI cannot make art and should not be allowed to substitute humans.

TBF it ruined that AI generated Seinfeld show. That was odd. It realized it got too popular and sabotaged itself.

A little but Season 9 was funny. Jerry just knew when to walk away. Despite huge NBC cash.
