5th Generation Computers were the thing that had people worried - essentially Prolog-style systems using logic programming. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fifth

  Unfortunately Prolog-like logical programming was especially hard to parallelize and too high-level, in that it was hard to implement efficient search/computation strategies as part of a "declarative" Prolog program. Thus Prolog itself isn't used all that much today, even though e.g. database query and other types of "non-deterministic" programming (based on trial-and-error 'choice' and backtracking) work with similar principles.
