We don't even need to go that far back for analogies.
I remember when Uber first came out. The same kind of pretentious self righteous people went running around yelling about how evil it was and how if you take an Uber right youre destroying poor taximan lives and NPR had segments about how Uber exploits drivers. And even the ennviornment made an appearance, just like now with AI, with claims that by taking an Uber you were contributing to global warming cuz you should bike instead or something.
Two years later everyone, even the people who did all this yelling, was quietly taking an Uber without a second thought.

As it turns out, the debate about AI was actually about animal welfare all along.
I predict this will be an under appreciated Glenn classic.
The ending clinches it
