“Once men turned their thinking over to machines in the hope that this would set them free. But that only permitted other men with machines to enslave them.”

Well in Dune universe they destroyed it.

JIHAD, BUTLERIAN: (see also Great Revolt) — the crusade against computers, thinking machines, and conscious robots begun in 201 B.G. and concluded in 108 B.G. Its chief commandment remains in the O.C. Bible as "Thou shalt not make a machine in the likeness of a human mind."

Hey man, just want you to know, you are not the only one who still believes in humans.

Humans can only rely on humans to save human's problems, not machines.

Happiness doesn't pair well with power, only balance does. I don't get why people keep chasing power, building powerful tools just because they can when it clearly shows that power doesn't give them a loving, happy and healthy life. People in the modern day era are living a convenient yet boring and depressive life, when cyborgs come, nothing will ever change, power will keep scaling up and most power belongs the minority who control it.
