I absolutely loved this show. I don't know if its the first or near of some of the first shows to start playing around with the idea of the concept of "VR" but there's just a simple scene where not really spoiling anything nothing having to deal with story is that same kid on the show is punished and told to go to his room by his Mother. Mother I think was trying to ground the kid but when he's in his room he puts a headset on his face and boom does VR type stuff. Little do you you know we have things like the quest VR headset by some companies like Oculus, HTC Vive, Facebook's Meta Quest headset and more.

The small tidbit of a scene I described isn't necessarily anything in my mind having deal to deal with the story.

I like to think in my mind this is where some of that came from, but not entirely sure and it's probably a straight coincidence of course.
