The year is 2050. Global tensions are high, resources are dwindling, and society is fractured. Despite the rise of incredible technological advancements, humanity has yet to overcome its greatest challenges: inequality, climate change, and political corruption. The wealth gap has expanded exponentially, with a handful of elite corporations and individuals controlling the majority of the world’s resources, while the masses live in a fragmented world of struggling cities and poverty.
However, the technological landscape has evolved rapidly. Artificial intelligence and automation are present in almost every aspect of life. AI manages traffic systems, health diagnostics, education, and even government operations in many countries. But there’s a catch: most of these systems are siloed, heavily controlled by the elite, and often used for surveillance and manipulation.
