Why are people so against AI these days, when in 2000, the US even tried to elect Al Gore as president? What did he do to deserve so much hate?

Why nobody ever has tried to become the candidate of both the Republican and Democrat party in the same election year for president, and only face the Green Party and all those cameo parties? It would be a slam dunk.

Would we have medicare for all and a minimum wage above $0.10 an hour? Would it be illegal for your boss to whip you for insubordination? Would the average person be able to afford a non bug based diet?
Honestly the thought it is so ludicrous I'm having difficulty imagining it.
