A lot of techbros like to have “alternative interpretations” on said works. They don’t see them as technology/power bad stories, but as issues of bad alignment.
“Yes the torment nexus didn’t work out in the classic scifi novel “Don’t build the torment nexus” but that was just because the people who built it where incompetent. Look, i am different, see I have billions of dollars I am definitely competent enough to make the torment nexus work.”
The other usually is “The Foundation in the classic sci-fi novel «Don’t Build The Torment Nexus» did not see the importance of a «humanity first» approach, and cut corners for profit”, then they immediately cut corners for profit.
