I'm surprised nobody has mentioned Elysium and it's spiritual forefather Robocop yet... If the AI revolution will lead to robotized, nearly invincible, privately owned Military and Police forces beholden to no other whim but that of their owners, and the resulting transformation of the political landscape, this might be our future. I'm not sure it's the most likely future from our now, but certainly one we should be wary of.
