Black Mirror imagined a dark future. But what if that future is already here?

In Episode 13 of The Neuvieu AI Show, we explore how some of the most chilling episodes from Black Mirror—from memory implants to AI deepfakes of the dead—aren’t just speculative fiction anymore. They’re fast-approaching realities.

We examine real-world parallels to:

• “Nosedive” and China’s social credit system
• “Be Right Back” and AI-powered digital resurrection tools
• “The Entire History of You” and Neuralink’s memory implants
• “Joan Is Awful,” “Metalhead,” and “Hated in the Nation” with deepfake streamers, killer bots, and robotic bees

This episode unpacks the eerie alignment between entertainment and innovation—and asks urgent questions:

• What happens when tech meant to connect us begins to control us?
• How do we grieve in an age where the dead can text us back?
• And how much of your identity still belongs to you?

Black Mirror may be fiction, but the warning signs are real.
