If you had access to a large language model that could help predict the outcome of specific questions, what would you use it for? The Center for AI Safety developed a superhuman AI forecasting bot for exactly that purpose.
I also shared a great futures method you can start using today, it’s called the ?????????????? ??????????. It's a simple brainstorming method to help you think about the possible consequences of an idea or event. It works on the principle of causal relationships, assuming that every action or occurrence can lead to a series of subsequent effects. Give it a try!
I hope you will find the newsletter useful!
