When digging in most conspiracies, you could notice that many of them somehow connected to the 70-s of XX century.
For example:
Since 70-s we have no any significant scientific discoveries. I mean really game-changing things. Last one was laser. It was real discovery of something simple but never seen before. Totally new thing, that change nearly everything. We see a lot of game-changing discoveries before 70-s, but none after. Just like progress was intentionally stopped. The only significant progress I could see is in the electronics. And it is just miniaturisation of pre 70-s stuff, not something really new. Even in USSR higly promising ternary computers was dropped exactly in 70-s. As somebody said, "we dreamed about flying cars in XXI century, but got only fucking 140 characters in twitter".
Space exploration. As soon as humanity get a technical ability to explore external worlds, (it does not matter, was moon landing a hoax or not, the important thing that it was technically possible) it was limited to habitable LEO stations, nothing more. In 70-s.
Climate. All that dumb thing with fighting climate change started in 70-s.
Firearms restrictions all over the world, prohibition of psychodelics, changing terrorism from "killing political opponents or high rank authorities" to that strange thing they sold us as "terrorism" now (did you notice that only beneficiars of "terrorism" is governments and never ones who blamed? So what is the point for blamed to repeat something completely useless for them again and again?), etc. All that starts in 70-s.
Just check, you will find connection of nearly every conspiracy to something in 70-s.
It's not only my fantasy. Others find that strange and suspicious too. Look at https://wtfhappenedin1971.com/ or https://www.epi.org/publication/raising-americas-pay/ (just check the "Poverty rate, actual and simulated 1959–2012" graph. It shows that right after 70-s, each time poverty rate drops, it inevitably returns to exact value of 15%. This is definitely an intentional thing.)
So, the root and the key of most conspiracies is in something in 70-s. If we find what happened in 70-s and who is behind, we will get a key to nearly every conspiracy we talk about here.
Any suggestions or may be some more evidence?
Tesla was pretty much the last person to make advances in our understanding of useable physics. Everything since then has been derivative embellishments of his work. And in 1905, physics research went stagnant because everyone fell for Einstein's bullshit. I also suspect Stephen Hawking was a strawman/red herring meant to delay any revolutions in physics.
Given that context for the 20th century, it's no wonder we haven't made much scientific progress since the 70s. Our greatest advancement has been silicon microelectronics, but I'm fairly sure that was reverse engineered from the Roswell crash.
But to answer your question about more evidence from the 70s, look into the AI Winter that was caused by none other than Epstein Island frequenter Marvin Minsky.

You're right that someone's trying to keep us in the dark as a species...no joke, but I think it can be explained by the "bad aliens" who want us to join their galactic collective. If we figure stuff out for ourselves then we won't need them or their "gifts", so they keeping us purposefully dumb.
Highly unlikely. Semiconductor devices was discovered long before Rosewell. At least diodes and LEDs was known tens years before and diodes was already in mass production. It was only question of curiosity and luck to discover transistor. And it was only question of technology to combine different parts on a single piece of semiconductor.
Semiconductors is not very complex thing, at least humans definitely had all chances to invent them without any help.
As for AI, I don't think that it is possible to predict anything about it. The main feature of any intellect is unpredictability. Also, AI must have an ability to rewrite itself. So we could not predict nor AI's actions, nor rewrites. And we definitely can't predict the behaviour of AI after unpredicted rewrites.
Everything we have now is not an AI at all. Yes, marketing is roaring aout 'AI' but it has nothing common with any intellect at all. It is all a dumb tools specifically made for the purposes of corporations.
It is interesting, that first physical implementation of neural network (perceptron) was done in 1957. So everything 'AI' we have now is just old, pre-70-s idea on new, more powerful hardware, nothing more. Nothing new was invented in that sphere after 70-s. Even a good old ideas of 'knowledge base' and 'semantic&context recognition' was buried.
In our brain we have something similar to neural networks that now falsely named AI by dishonest marketologists. We use this things in process of, say, image or sound recognition. However it is very small part of process. Intellect could have neural network as part of it, but neural network itself is not even near something we could name intellect. It is very simple thing, just a self-adjusting system of equations, nothing more.
However, information about cut of AI research funding in 70-s is very interesting, thank you.
Or this could be "bad aliens" who don't want us to join equitable galactic collective, say to utilize us for resources or something else for their profit.
