Original premise for Pic S.3 - Terry Matalas.....

[CampBOO!]

The Last Generation about how young people will be tricked by technology into destroying society and that the old guard needs to step in to save the new generation from themselves.

Yup. I said something similar but got called ageist… oh well. Still, I think you worded it better than I did.

Don't forget PIC season 1, LDS season 1, and the Resurgence video game all ended with Riker flying in to the rescue at the last minue.

Yeah, but Riker's awesome. He should save everyone in every season finale.

Don't forget Lower Decks season 3, which had AI controlled ships with daddy issues tearing through ships.

I was willing to give that one a pass since that was just three(?) ships versus something that inflicted, or should have inflicted, major damage to a large number of vessels.
