To be watched.

And _Pantheon_ if you haven't seen it yet.

Wow! Pantheon had a great start so far! I find it very well researched, and so far no cringe moments in terms of technology from me! For anyone who enjoys exploring the transhumanist utopia of uploading I do recommend it unless you are put off by animated series.
Thank you very much for this recommendation!

and started to watch Cyberpunk: Edgerunners
(https://www.imdb.com/title/tt12590266/).

I'm only 2 episodes in, but so far, I think they've done quite a good job
with the concept.
