Outstanding. A major development, like AI is likely to be, will not just provoke opposition, in simple and direct ways, but also inspire creative responses, work-arounds, resistance movements, oppositional groups and even cults. Of course it will. The analogy to the romantic movement is clever and could be the basis for a series of science fiction short stories.

This and more of this.

Your idea of singslang reminds me of what Giambattista Vico postulates in his New Science: that poetry came first than prose, and that the first languages were sung rather than spoken.

I was inspired by similar explanations of the origin of language, but was not aware of Vico's take on it. Thank you!

Most people over-rely on the technological predictions and analysis of innovative tech rather than the human aspect; I love that you focused on the human element. I hope and think some human revolution will coincide with the AI revolution. While maybe not exactly the right prediction, I enjoyed that you attempted to ideate what may come!

This was a beautiful exploration - thank you for this!

Here's a prediction. The "AI Revolution" won't happen at all.

Maybe it won't. Check out what Jobst Landgrebe has to say on the subject at Hrvoje Moric's "Geopolitics and Empire".
