I think the second half of the section "The promise of dystopia" is the most likely. Infrastructure for AI will collapse before it can materialize civilization-transforming attributes. Localized AI wouldn't have enough input to do what even the current generation is doing. Could be helpful in planning as you said, but that assumes power generation remains steady enough to do so, and I have a hard time imagining us generating enough excess power above and beyond whatever is needed just for survival.
