This episode examines how technology shapes communication and reinforces social divisions in "The Turing Test". The story depicts a future where smartcoms are essential tools available in flat and wristband designs. XR glasses and lenses, popular among futures, blur the lines between physical and digital realities.
However, the greatest division arises from communication chips. Corporate employees often have BNI biochips implanted for seamless telepathic communication. Futures, however, reject implants as tools for corporate control, fearing companies could access and manipulate their memories. This fear is amplified by technologies like the VARiograph, capable of scanning BNI chips. Instead, futures prefer external in-ear communication chips, giving them more privacy.
"The Turing Test" explores how these choices reflect the power imbalance between corporations and individuals in a technologically driven world.
