Scenario prompt 21 August 2025
The scenario prompt for today is AI. All the prompts today have an AI element. Change buy in, future buying behaviour, transformation, strategy, organoids (biological AI), and intuition/precognition. Natural intelligence. Which is where AI will go. Augmented natural intelligence. Read/buy my book about 25 books about AI, and you will understand.
The other prompts for today are tiny magnetic robots, AI doing the buying, change buy in, human brain transplants into animals, a nano material mega library (on a chip), real AI transformation, strategy and AI, growing organoids faster, precognition and you are the upgrade.
