I think we’re in agreement that the cautionary story in Wall-e is about sustainability rather than AI.

I suggest there is confusion about the Y-axis. Is it the theme of “the story in relation to AI” or “the story as a whole”. Both approaches are interesting though. Such as here where you’re able to show that wall-e is an outlier in that its about a good-AI in a cautionary tale (about a different subject).

Once the labels are clear a side-by-side would be also interesting (is wall-e a super outlier? Are there others like this?)

At any rate; thanks for the thoughtful diagram.
