I think survivorship bias tends to make the past look more sensible than it was. The biggest thing on goddamn television when I was a kid was "the lizard people have come for our water... and our WOMEN" As far as I'm concerned I'd rather see money spent on Alicuberre drives than fuckin' LLMs. At least magic warp drives have some questions left to answer; The whole of AI is all about "smooth jazz, only nobody had to make it OR listen to it!"
