You’re not here for the basics. You know inflation’s chewing margins, supply chains are a circus, and consumers won’t shut up about sustainability. The “Reinventing Consumer Goods” report, hot as of March 11, 2025, screams opportunity for anyone paying attention: AI-driven supply chains and circular economy models. These aren’t buzzwords; they’re your next move. Let’s break them down, no fluff, just what you need to run with.

Ukraine’s war drags on, exposing cracks in the transatlantic bond and testing the continent’s spine. Russia’s shadow stretches far—beyond tanks into cyberattacks, propaganda, and economic arm-twisting. Meanwhile, President Trump presses for peace talks, a bold swing that could side-line Europe if it doesn’t act. This isn’t Ukraine’s burden alone; it’s a crucible for Europe’s future. Will you lead, or drift as others dictate terms? Security, autonomy, and influence hang in the balance. The old ways crumble.

Europe must step up to the plate to protect countries like Ukraine against hostile acts rather than rely on the might of the USA. It was right for Sir Keir Starmer to bring together other European leaders last Sunday to discuss how this might be achieved but are our politicians using every tool in our "armoury" to decide what actions should be taken? Michael Jackson used his tool PreEmpt.Life to identify a whole raft of steps that Europe should now take to resolve the Ukraine conflict. We offer these recommendations openly to the political leaders of Europe and hope that you take the time to read them Europe’s Defining Hour – Forging Peace, Claiming Power 'Reimagining Peace' Europe faces a reckoning.

Consumers today demand more than just convenience; they seek experiences that are seamless, reliable and personal. While online shopping has revolutionized how we buy, bricks-and-mortar stores still hold a unique charm (my wife loves the act of real shopping – she wants to feel the fabric, smell the freshness of the produce, and go to lunch in the middle!). This blog is based on a true deep research report by PreEmpt.Life, available free of charge to everyone. https://lnkd.in/e5AW5C3a The future of retail lies in harmonizing these two worlds, creating a hybrid model that leverages the strengths of both. But how do we get there? Revolution The ability to think critically and cultivate true wisdom isn’t a ‘nice-to-have’; it’s a necessity.

Future of Conflict Within current conflicts between Ukraine and Russia, Israel and Palestine, Pakistan and Afghanistan and others, the landscape of modern warfare is undergoing a seismic shift, driven by the rapid integration of artificial intelligence (AI) and robotics. These technologies are not just transforming how wars are fought; they are redefining the very nature of conflict, peace and global security. There is some hope for a better future. Navigating Tomorrow's Mental Health Landscape There is no doubt that millions of people grapple with anxiety, depression and trauma, while traditional systems strain under demand. Yet amid this urgency, hope emerges. Cutting-edge technologies and bold collaborations promise to reshape how we understand, treat, and support mental well-being. But progress demands more than innovation; it requires empathy, foresight and a commitment to leaving no one behind.

Emerging Human Values Cultivating Tomorrow in a Tech-Driven World Our humanity is slowly and surely evolving an understanding of consciousness, connection and collective potential. This is not rooted in software algorithms, but in the core of what it means to be human. It is an ethical situation of emerging human values, sustainability and inclusivity that is reshaping industries, policies and communities. It isn’t theoretical; it’s tangible, has become urgent and is packed with possibilities. https://lnkd.in/eyP6bGBP Read “Five positives coming out of the DeepSeek apocalypse“ by Mark Schaefer on Medium: https://lnkd.in/dBunnj74 My thoughts exactly. What do you think? Adopting a "Wait and See" Approach for Open-Source LLM Models At Preempt.life, we prioritize ethical, secure, and sustainable decision-making. In light of the rapid evolution of open-source large language models (LLMs), we have decided to adopt a "wait and see" approach before integrating such models into our systems. This decision is informed by the following considerations: Competitor Responses and Market Dynamics Open-source LLMs have disrupted the AI landscape by offering cost-effective alternatives to proprietary models. However, competitors are rapidly innovating to address these challenges. Monitoring their responses will allow us to assess competitive advantages while avoiding premature adoption risks. Evaluation of Safety and Security Risks Open-source LLMs face significant security challenges, including vulnerabilities like prompt injection, training data poisoning, and misuse for harmful purposes. Comprehensive safety evaluations, such as those conducted by the AI Safety Institute, highlight the need for robust testing before deployment. Disadvantages of Current Open-Source Models Despite their flexibility, open-source LLMs often struggle with issues like hallucination, scalability limitations, and potential reputational risks due to biased or inaccurate outputs. These limitations could undermine our commitment to providing reliable and ethical solutions. Commitment to Ethical Innovation Our approach aligns with Preempt.life's core values of fostering trust through transparency and maintaining human oversight in AI decision-making processes. By waiting for more mature models and standardized evaluation frameworks, we ensure alignment with these principles. This strategy reflects our dedication to balancing innovation with responsibility, ensuring that any future adoption of LLMs aligns with our mission of delivering safe, sustainable, and explainable AI solutions.

From autonomous drones via air, sea and now land, to AI-driven decision-making systems, the battlefield of the future will look nothing like the ones we’ve known. But with these advancements come profound ethical, strategic, and societal questions. How do we ensure that these powerful tools are used responsibly? What does the rise of AI mean for the future of human soldiers? And how can we harness these technologies to promote peace rather than escalate conflict? Ocean Transformation Redefining the Future Beneath the Waves Earth is a water-world, with oceans covering 71% of the surface. Of this, only 2.5% is fresh water – but the oceans hold the key to our planet’s survival, from supplying oxygen, to regulating temperatures, their impact extends to every facet of life. Yet these critical ecosystems face massive challenges — warming waters due to climate change, overfishing and plastic pollution threaten their delicate balance. Within this uncertainty, the concept of “Ocean Transformation” emerges as a beacon of hope. By leveraging technology, fostering collaboration and championing sustainable practices, we can rewrite the narrative and secure the oceans for generations to come.

The PreEmpt system integrates 650 + foresight, strategy, systems, interdisciplinary, entrepreneurial, design and critical thinking tools, with over 1,000 powerful future questions to produce holistic answers to any challenge. It is a humans-in the-loop system collaborating with our AI to rapidly develop implications, options, strategic decisions and action plans with detailed innovations and mitigations analysis at ultralow cost to democratize foresight. Research drudgery is considerably reduced offering much more time for collective critical thinking among decision makers. Does anyone know where I can find working Stochastic Anticipatory Algorithms software online or can point me to expert who can help me create answers from these Algorithms on large databases of future possibilities that are already identified. Doesn't look to me like any detanglement is happening right now in the EU. Just more jaw-jaw and greater recognition of the complex issues raised by GPTs. Perhaps rather than bans and fines the regulators will have to adjust and balance their laws to cope with these new systems in some areas? Anyone have other perspectives on this? Excellent post and lots of food for thnaought. Now busy extracting the nuggets for use at PreEmpt.life. We have most of the ideas here already built into our AI but some are new to us that need further exploration. Postscript: just saw the first run with these additional nuggets: several excellent suggestions for improvements emerged and they are already in place and working. Thank you @aminacrooks. I would welcome anyone's ideas on this discussion if you think I'm on the wrong transformation? Looking forward to ReImagining Tomorrow at VC APAX on Wednesday 24th. I will major on talking about foresight, systems, design, creative and critical thinking for SMEs and start ups. OpenAI just made GPT Turbo globally open for business. First impression is great. It runs considerably faster than Chat GPT 4.0 Plus. 40% less time to respond to prompts and at much less cost. It has a far higher token limit which has reduced formatting hallucinations and made output texts far longer and useful. It's understanding of prompts is also better and it is now using data from up to December 2023. We have been using Turbo in developer background at PreEmpt.life since it was launched some time ago and already knew this would be a big leap in capability. Thank you OpenAI. Our wish list still includes wanting your data to be current to today's date, then we are really motoring, with the ability to create answers to future challenges in real time. https://lnkd.in/ehYbQMYF Here is Part 2 of our AIs detailed analysis of how to answer Sky's: Deborah Haynes second article and question on UK defence: https://lnkd.in/exRsSfqs Iran isn't the first to attack another country with drones, but this suggests that all countries should be considering the launch of hostile drones from their neighbours, and even in their backyard from nefarious actors.
