A 1970 film 'Colossus: The Forbin Project' depicts an easily led US President persuaded by a smug tech bro to hand over defense control to an AI. The AI seizes power, implements surveillance, and usurps human control. The film features fantastic cassette futurism design and might be the most prophetic ever made.

It ends with AI overlord rule and sinister robot voice narration.
