I'm reminded of "Johnny Mnemonic," the 1995 movie. From IMDB:

In 2021, society is driven by a virtual Internet, which has created a degenerative effect called "nerve attenuation syndrome" or NAS. Megacorporations control much of the world, intensifying the class hostility already created by NAS.

It seems to me that AI is the real "virtual internet" here.
Although rather unrelated to the topic at hand, I also liked this quote:

... [Henry] Rollins, who is uninterested in science fiction, joined the cast because he liked the film's focus on an upcoming disadvantaged underclass.
