You're a futurist. But, with AI tools you can be a software developer/computer scientist. And you can figure out how to use those abilities to do your work (futuring) better.
I am a computer scientist. I am trying to use AI to help me be a futurist, since part of my job is to develop a vision of the future so I can CS steer education. So far, I am finding it hard. The most useful thing it has done it pointed me to you.
Hopefully that's a positive thing! One wall I'm constantly running into with AI models is their tendency to regress to what is interpolatable from the past (and past conventions) — not surprising given their training sets — and this makes using them for futures work more tricky than might be expected.
Ha! Part of the game play, of course, is curiosity and experimentation and learning, which are another reflection of my work (smart of Fable) - but yes, it does require a degree of ingenuity beyond the one key control 😀

This must be the understatement of the year: "The game is intentionally simple." You need a PhD to figure out how to play it!
