So at the weekend, I was relaxing, watching TV with my dog, and I watched the new Jennifer Lopez movie, Atlas, on Netflix, which is all about the future and AI and whether we should or shouldn't trust AI. It's quite topical at the moment. And inevitably, there was an opening scene where news is breaking in her apartment, which is this modern, futuristic place, and I could predict three, two, one. There is a load of screens, right, virtually on the wall, and she's going up and interacting with them. It kind of felt like a reboot of Minority Report in many ways. And it just proves, yet again, what we always see is that any depiction of the future comes with screens involved and a degree of interactivity and more reliance on those screens in our everyday life. We are all envisioning this, and actually, even the external scenes, there was projections of advertising to show that the buildings were more futuristic. It's not just film directors that are coming up with these ideas. I think they are using them in their art and their creativity because it's a vision of a future that we've all subscribed to. It's just a case of trying to get there, and that's what ScreenCloud's here to help you all do. ScreenCloud is a proud sponsor of Second Opinion.
