In short, better tagging and organizing of data would make finding and applying knowledge easier and be a competitive advantage. Turns out those pesky human workers didn t cotton to the idea of sharing their knowledge into a database for \[ \] The post AI Fulfilling the Promise of Knowledge… ## [How to Analyze Scenarios (Inside the Futurist’s Mind)](https://www.andyhinesight.com/how-to-analyze-scenarios-inside-the-futurists-mind/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=how-to-analyze-scenarios-inside-the-futurists-mind) _2026-08-04 · Andy Hines · Hinesight….for Foresight_ In this video, I walk you through the Image Analysis template I built to compare future scenario works and clarify visions of the future.

That post was more about what it couldn't do. Contracts were only runtime-checked. No generics on user-defined types. I said it was closer to "Rust with mandatory asserts" than to formal verification. I meant it. It was a proof of concept and I said so. Both of those limitations are gone now. The compiler proves contracts statically… ## [Review: We Have Never Been Woke](https://www.andyhinesight.com/review-we-have-never-been-woke/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=review-we-have-never-been-woke) _2026-07-15 · Andy Hines · Hinesight….for Foresight_ This is a challenging book.
