The Virtual Boardroom (Silicon Valley Blues)
Script
Panel 1: [Setting: A sleek, minimalist Apple-style boardroom. Arthur, an aging tech executive in a black turtleneck, sits at a glass desk looking at a massive wall-mounted screen. Chloe, his young assistant, stands nearby holding a tablet.] Arthur: "Since the executive shake-up, we've been swamped with applicants for the CEO spot. Let's see the first candidate."
Panel 2: [Setting: Close-up of the video screen, showing a highly convincing deepfake of a famous blonde pop megastar, though her eyes look slightly glassy and there are minor digital artifacts near her collar.] Deepfake Popstar: "I plan to leverage Anthropic's 'Mythos' model to rewrite iOS. We're going to shake off those cyber threats, literally!"
Panel 3: [Setting: The screen switches to a deepfake of a famous legendary West Coast rapper wearing Apple Vision Pro goggles and gesturing smoothly.] Deepfake Rapper: "And I'm bringing GPT-5.4-Cyber to audit the cloud infrastructure. Drop it like it's hot-patched, nephew."
Panel 4: [Setting: Arthur facepalms deeply at the desk. Chloe looks nervously at her tablet.] Arthur: "Chloe, are any of these real humans, or did the marketing interns find the open-source face-swappers again?" Chloe: "Well... the next applicant is a deepfake of Nicolas Cage, but his voice model is running on a 2012 smart toaster."
