Are there any parallels outside of technology with the evolution of AI. I'm think of how the Ford motor company streamlined car manufacturing. You could argue that it put people out of a job and that this was doing bad this. Fast forward 100 years and nobody today would even think this.

Are the things we see bad for AI today. Will we still think the same way in 100 years?

Every significant innovation changes how we operate on individual and social levels, and many consequences are unintended and unexpected. The key difference might be the speed of adoption. It took the Internet ~20 years to become a foundation of our civilization. Now, we have narratives that if AI is not embedded in a company's operations by the next quarter, the race is lost. And we don't even know yet which of our expectations are realistic.
