    All of 20th century sci-fi has premises like: What happens when we can predict crime with perfect accuracy, or if robots follow the Three Laws perfectly, or if eugenics produces a true perfect superhuman race, WHAT THEN

    Now people who skimmed those books are giving us half-baked versions of them held together with duct tape and Python code with failure modes that are all just fascism

    But everyone still talks about them like the interesting moral questions are the ones from the perfect sci-fi
