I think there's a lot of sci-fi out there that already did. Maybe it's not utopian because a pure utopia would not be likely to have an interesting story, but on the other hand, most huge technological advancements end up having just as much potential to reinforce existing power imbalances in society rather than solve them. It's not obvious to me that if we got magic super AI that can solve every scientific problem in society that it gets used in pretty much the same way as anything else: making the people who control it a lot of money rather than sharing the power with everyone without charging them.
