With nearly every job performed by bots, citizens spend their lives in a virtual-reality device called a VNi chair.
Immersive soap operas where you're the star...
A simulated Heaven that eliminates the need for a life of virtue...
Police-sanctioned murder games...
But if all their experiences are simulated, are they really living?
