Someone like Sam Altman who will watch "Her" (2013) and think "we should make that real!" belong to the worst kind of person to give money to.
There are very few people in everyday live who are unhinged enough to want that, dont give them money.

The eighties kids are hung up on what they saw in the movies growing up and are trying to building most of it without any fresh ideas or foresight.
I'm sure some of the people designing and building such dystopias like to imagine they'll belong to that small utopian part of it and disregard any impact to anyone else.
Probably many people do this to some extent, and it can be fairly harmless (for instance, Isaac Asimov apparently did not realise that people found the world-spanning arcologies found in Foundation (Trantor) and his detective novels (Earth) crushingly dystopian until after the fact). But when it crosses over with money and influence, it can be concerning.
