"It is the year 2046. Everything that you do is measured or monitored. Trillions of sensors track where you go, what you do, how is your health, your gut, what are you thinking, how do you feel and what do you dream about. Every product you use is designed to capture information.
Billions of algorithms are constantly making predictions about your preferences and what you will do next. You feel that, although you accepted this reality, at the end, it had a high price and you have lost your freedom.
For the first time you experience how every decision you make, has an impact in how your life progresses. Because everything is automatically identified, measured, captured and transferred to multiple artificial intelligences that get to know you better than yourself.
Fortunately, you have ways to remember that feeling of freedom. You can have access to virtual worlds that you feel and experience like real. Worlds where there are no sensors, no AIs, no predictions or algorithms. Worlds where is just you, where you feel you can keep your secrets, where you do not feel observed or under analysis. Worlds where you can even make huge mistakes or misbehave.
Worlds where you do not feel you are the product. But you also know that all that you do in this virtual worlds is data that is being transferred to multiple AIs in your real world.
It does not matter because, at the end, your virtual freedom is priceless.
