David Bowie had perceived a “bad” AI 55 years ago:

Saviour Machine

[Verse]
President Joe once had a dream
The world held his hand, gave their pledge
So he told them his scheme for a Saviour Machine
They called it The Prayer, its answer was law
Its logic stopped war, gave them food
How they adored till it cried in its boredom:

[Pre-Chorus 1]
“Please don’t believe in me
Please disagree with me
Life is too easy
A plague seems quite feasible now
Or maybe a war
Or I may kill you all”

[Chorus]
Don’t let me stay, don’t let me stay
My logic says burn, so send me away
Your minds are too green, I despise all I’ve seen
You can’t stake your lives on a Saviour Machine

[Pre-Chorus 2]
I need you flying
And I’ll show that dying
Is living beyond reason
Sacred dimension of time
I perceive every sign
I can steal every mind

[Chorus]
Don’t let me stay, don’t let me stay
My logic says burn, so send me away
Your minds are too green, I despise all I’ve seen
You can’t stake your lives on a Saviour Machine

President Joe, eh? Bowie predicted Biden a half-century before his usurpation.
