Any evolution can be used as an horror movie device. Freeways, ubiquitous televisions, in a world that did not have that, you could make scary fictions about it. I find it sad that nowadays dystopias have become the only depictions of futures.

May I introduce you to the "hopepunk" genre? https://www.google.com/search?q=hopepunk&oq=hopepunk&aqs=chrome..69i57j0l9.1088j0j7&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8 https://www.google.com/search?q=hopepunk&oq=hopepunk&aqs=chr... Kim Robinson's Mars series stands out as a seminal example. Also one of his Three Californias triptych is a classic hopepunk story. Looking over https://www.goodreads.com/shelf/show/hopepunk https://www.goodreads.com/shelf/show/hopepunk there's a lot I'm not familiar with, but can attest to the fundamentally optimistic takes in Andy Weir's The Martian and Martha Wells' Murderbot Diaries.
