Found this Donald Duck comic from 1972: “Byte Makes Right” (or: The Computer, or: Too Intelligent a Robot)
https://scrooge-mcduck.fandom.com/wiki/The_Computer
The opening line is:
“This Magic Brain is Scrooge’s new Superthink XL! Just slopping over with artificial intelligence, it should simplify office work pronto…”
Slopping over with AI! Coincidence or ahead of its time by over 50 years?!

@zekjur@mas.to dunno where the slopping mention comes from but basically it is the same luddite philosophy as highly relevant today, fitting firmly with d.duck comic humor :neocat_3c:
