individuals will most likely havetheir own rating reduced

excluded from society, and as a direct consequence of
this, they will have no chance to improve their standing.
Those who were either born into the top rankings or got
to the top through purchasing their way there will always
hold the most prestige.

In summary, in a world where our lives are based on a
virtual score card, it is likely that as time goes on, the
gap between people who have high ratings and those
who have low ratings will continue to widen, resulting in
a society that is extremely stratified. Those who begin
at the bottom are much more likely to remain there
throughout the entire process.

look at these scenarios.

Thereare a number of films on the impact of technology
on our future lives, particularly as it relates to data and
AI, however, two films come to mind as examples of
how this social rating system could work in the future;
“Nosedive” is a Netflix Twilight Zone episode and “In
Time,” starring Justin Timberlake and Amanda Seyfried.

Nosediveis a 2015 Black Mirror episode from the Netflix
Twilight Zoneseries. It’s about a young lady named Lacie
who lives her life in order to gain points on social media.

completely reliant on their score, the plot makes sense

are taken directly from our daily lives today.
