Hence Marx prediction of capitalism eventually suffering from simultaneously crises of overproduction and underemployment. A prediction based only on two assumptions: that capitalism will continue to increase productivity and reduce costs, and that eventually the only cost that can still be cut will be labour.
His third prediction is one we can hope is wrong: that society will stubbornly refuse to adapt until the issue is forced by uprisings.
And? So what if it is? That makes it not real in some way, or not worth consideration or study? It's affecting a lot of people, their suffering is real. The cause is significant to understanding and relieving the effects. If we determine 100% that it's mental we still don't get to shrug and say alright then that's that good luck everybody.
Who cares? People will quickly setup their own default search engine. And I guess it will be Google. Google is a household name. Nobody in the "real" world cares about this AI crap.
Like many other religions, OOP has split into several competing factions, each with a slightly different interpretation. To complicate the situation even more, in many areas of the world OOP has been mixed thoroughly with the local pre-OOP beliefs from the dark ages.

Bertrand Meyer's book Object-Oriented Software Construction is just about as good as it gets for defining and justifying OOP. Still worth a read today. That said, functional programming and hexagonal architecture are probably more useful.
I found a lot of holes in the justification. The scenarios make a lot of questionable assumptions about how the future will change. I'll see if I can find a certain critique that used to be floating around the web...
