Dune's backstory is that they made bots in the past but the bots tried to kill all humans (
) so that's why there are mentats and guild navigators because they don't have any computer smarter than a toaster left.
Dune robots didn't try to kill people.
"Once men turned their thinking over to machines in the hope that this would set them free. But that only permitted other men with machines to enslave them."
One robot got curious and killed one baby, one time, and everybody got bent out of shape about it.
I am not a bot
It's more that humans became overly reliant on their machines and there was almost a religious movement to overthrow that reliance. Later books retconned this into classic ai killbots
