Scenario prompts 16 December 2024
Use the prompts to question relevance, opportunity vs threat, if vs when, timelines, the potential impact on the organisation and the appropriate responses. Consider multiple futures and different time horizons.
Todays prompts are energy distribution by rail, organisational strategy, AI innovation, heat powered wearables, consciousness, synthetic micro organisms, and the tech predictions of the Amazon CTO.
Is your organisational design ready for AI?
Revolutionizing Energy Distribution! The Future of Clean Power is on the Rails!
SunTrain’s proposes to adapt freight trains, leveraging their capacity to transport massive lithium-iron-phosphate batteries. These batteries would be used to carry renewable energy from sources like wind and solar farms to regions unable to access it.
