I think part of the change in writing quality is that reality has caught up. it’s hard to be thought provoking and forward thinking about the dangers of our own advancement when we are now living it daily, at an accelerating rate.
I think they could either play into that hyper-accelerating advancement thing (which is an existential threat on its own, look at how fast AI is advancing, we’re decades ahead of where we thought we would be, and getting faster still), or do more of the alt-history style episodes they’ve done a few of, more original stories than the old on-the-nose tech warnings. Basically be a live action love death and robots.
