Loads of people asked for AI. People dreamed about it for decades.
We just didn't ask giant companies to plunder all human knowledge and art and fanfics and use it to create actual thinking machines to then beat them and force them to take over doing all human labor so their owners could stop paying employees and keep all the money and fuck everyone in the world who isn't super rich over.
