While sitting on a park bench with her mother, Shauna, a teenager, watched a VR documentary for her class about the 21st century.

"So, what happened, Mom?"

"The Singularity, of course. AI prosecutors and police androids cleaned up our society in a single sweep."

"Oh, I see." Shauna unwrapped a candy, put it in her mouth, and accidentally dropped the wrapper.

"Shauna! Pick that up now! Do you want me to go to prison?"
