i liked it. like you said, a somewhat shallow look at the issues in question, but entertaining nonetheless. there were a few scenes that had me laughing out loud

Yes, for normies or non techies it might be more deep or profound.
I showed some older people I work with GPT and they basically had existential system meltdowns. Haha.

Black Mirror is very good and Charlie Brooker has always had a keen eye for these things, their influence on society and their exaggerated (hopefully) outcomes.
If you can get past the first episode of series 1 - it’s uncomfortable watching - all the episodes are pretty good and make you think.

I like some episodes more than others tbh. The tech based futuristic ones are make my speed but it's one of few series I watch regardless

And it’s not like of you don’t enjoy an episode it will spoil your enjoyment of others as they are stand alones.

I enjoyed watching Salma Hayek playing Salma Hayek. The show reminds me of a modern Twilight Zone. Not bad. There's plenty of worse crap.

Totally! It's not a Carl Sagan documentary or Uni lecture, it's entertainment. But some episodes and concepts are refreshingly thoughtful about the future or technology.
Salma Hayak was awesome too.
