I don't know when exactly this show was written but I know its before AI became a thing. To me this feels really steeped in COVID. Individualism vs Collectivism was playing out every day. Everyone was in isolation. The world struggled between accepting the new normal and it's desire to return to it's old ways. The virus took loved ones. Carol is going through the process of accepting that the world is never going to be the same. That her loved one was taken from her in a cold and arbitrary way.
I think that's obviously only part of the inspiration.
