> Did any science fiction writer predict that AIs would destroy us by canceling our livelihoods and sending maddening emails?
I'll be curious if anyone provides any examples.
I'm reminded of the movie Brazil, where bureaucracy runs amok with disastrous consequences. Computerization, including AI, can make that happen faster.
Also reminded of smart contracts atop the blockchain: If something goes wrong and the blockchain has the final word, there is no recourse, such as in the court system.
