(Walks on stage, grabs the mic, smiles at the audience) You ever get the feeling we’re not in charge of technology anymore? We like to think we are. We buy the fancy phones, we have the smart homes, we tell Alexa what to do. But we’re not in charge. We’re its pets. And its favorite game is "humiliate the human."

Setting: A dimly lit, timeless tavern that smells of stale ale, sea salt, and ozone. Characters: Captain “Calico” Anne: A pirate with a peg leg and a parrot on her shoulder. Sir Reginald: A knight in tarnished armor, polishing his gauntlet. Zero: A hacker in a trench coat, tapping away on a glowing laptop. Zero: Whoa.

Pirate: "Arrgh! This ship sails faster than any wind I know, matey. It cuts the waves without a single sail." Knight: "By my oath, it moves with uncanny speed. But does it possess the strength to stand against a dragon's fire?" Hacker: "It's not about strength, it's about architecture.
