These transitions also enable new forms of mass killing until society figures out the new equilibrium. The genocidal regimes of the 20th century wouldn't have been possible without multiple technologies (train lines to orchestrate, long-distance mass media to bind a group of people around a single narrative). We may have to go through another wave of mass death or dictatorship enabled by AI. It's hard enough to escape a dictatorship as is, but when they get their hands on the asymmetric power of robots and AI surveillance, they're probably impossible to remove.
