Thor Ragnarok feels like a weirdly good analogy for the AI transition.

Hela = AI, Asgard = modern society, Thor = Millennials/Gen Z, Odin = tech/business, Loki = humanity’s impulses, and Surtur = whatever comes after the singularity.

Hela suddenly destroys what Thor thought was foundational, exposes the ugly foundations of the old Asgard, and eventually becomes so intertwined with it that Thor has to let something even bigger destroy the old system to move forward.

But Ragnarok isn’t p(doom): Asgard falls, not its people. They survive an awkward transition and eventually build New Asgard within a completely different world.

Basically the age-old story of an old order becoming unsustainable, collapsing, and its people adapting into whatever comes next.
