This may not be what OP is into, but there’s an idea about Roswell that matches what they’re saying. Namely that America after the UFO crash was suddenly sitting on a bunch of new technology to reverse engineer.

They did so!.. And that explains America’s technical innovations since the 1950s.

So the Government set up a plan to slowly figure out and release all this tech (that’s a big change), and OP might be seeing AI as one of the final pieces.

Of course in actual fact you can traces the gradualness behind most technology, and look at the history of science to see nothing just popped into existence.

Part of the tech boom in the 1950s was from advances due to funding and science being concentrated and expanded (with the power of government funding) during the war years.

…and a bunch of the past 70 years innovations didn’t even cone from America. So really the Roswell-Tech-Boom theory falls apart. But of course like all conspiracy theories you can just recalibrate and retrofit it:

• Alien tech was given to other countries to release
• Universities were told to make fake histories to show gradual development.
• The Government only pretends to be incompetent to hide the great responsibility ut received in the 1950s.
