Why did sci fi writers stop dreaming of advanced AI and robotics during the early 2010s?

It was called "The Expanse"!





And although I really enjoyed it I really wish there were more space adventures with that level of quality set in more optimistic settings that are not Star Trek!

I think it would have been cool if during the 2010s we had gotten a space adventure set in a future where humanity had colonized the solar system and later develops the ability to go to other solar systems that had exciting space battles, action packed storytelling, and lovable spaceship crew like in The Expanse but had more advanced AI and robotics as well as no inequality and wars between humans like in The Expanse.

Probably because it'd be done too much already.

It (AI) started with HAL then it tailed off and picked up with Ash (a synthetic) in Alien.

Of course you had another appearance of HAL in the 2010 movie.

I suspect HAL was the closest to today's AI.

Robotics in movies started in the 50s (Gort and Robbie the Robot) and has never really tailed off.

The answer depends on who does the commissioning and editing .
So you need to ask NASA and the CIA for their responses because you will get zilch from Deep State .
