Speaker A
I wanted to travel to the future to see if we'll be okay.
Speaker A
Sorry.
Speaker A
Oh, it's a robot.
Speaker A
Cool, that's fine.
Speaker A
Oh my, what was that?
Speaker A
Are those just everywhere?
Speaker A
Turns out we might actually be okay.
Speaker A
I'll report back.
Speaker A
Okay, what is this?
Speaker A
Is this a peach?
Speaker A
It's glowing.
Speaker A
Why is it?
Speaker B
Please do not handle produce without a biometric scan.
Speaker B
Contamination protocol is now active.
Speaker A
I'm so sorry.
Speaker A
I'm literally from 2026.
Speaker A
So I got in what I thought was a regular cab and there is no driver.
Speaker A
There is nobody in this car.
Speaker A
Why did it do that?
Speaker A
Why did it just, oh.
Speaker A
Oh, wow.
Speaker A
Okay.
Speaker B
Your journey to Midtown will take approximately four minutes.
Speaker B
Enjoy the view.
Speaker A
Four minutes.
Speaker A
I'm four minutes away from Midtown.
Speaker A
This is a lab grown Wagyu steak.
Speaker A
It has never been near a cow, like a cow was not involved in this at any point.
Speaker A
It's also telling me my exact protein intake right now, which is actually a lot of information while I'm trying to eat.
Speaker A
Oh, that's that's a perfect steak.
Speaker A
Okay, so I just walked past a cognitive enhancement clinic.
Speaker A
And obviously I went in.
Speaker B
You may feel a gentle warmth.
Speaker A
I could not do a jigsaw puzzle before I came in here.
Speaker A
So something.
Speaker A
Just made sense.
Speaker A
I don't know what, but something.
Speaker A
Is this what smart people feel like all the time?
Speaker A
That's so unfair.
Speaker A
So this is like the entire history of the city.
Speaker A
They kept all of it.
Speaker A
Every version.
Speaker A
Even the hard parts.
Speaker A
I keep thinking about people in my time who were so scared and I just want to tell them like, hang on.
Speaker A
Just hang on.
Speaker A
Sorry, didn't expect a screen to do that to me.
