Nice try Gemini
Comment on I really want a "What if" Machine. I'd kill for it.

You’ve already got one :
LLM’s!
Simply ask them “what if…”
& see all the consequences you didn’t foresee.
LLM’s are the ultimate brainstorming help.
Idiots & fools allow them to do their work for them, & wonder why “their” work is no-longer up to their standards,
… but just because idiots & fools use technologies wrong, doesn’t mean WE have to do that too, right?

Eh… I asked a LLM what if I arrived in the US when I was 6 instead of 8 and it predicted I’d probably totally forget my knowledge of Chinese and be more American… and it said I’d be responding in English instead of Cantonese… and that I would not feel so sentinental towards my Chinese name and constantly write those Characters on my assignments in school next to the Pinyin Name…
Like…
I don’t know about that… seems like it got a lot of data from just stereotyping…
I want like a superpowerful computer that can predict the movement of every particle in the universe…
Laplace’s Demon sort of thing…
How much data do I need to even feed it to get it to make an accurate prediction? A full brain scan?
But then that runs into a privacy issue.
I want an OFF GRID what if machine that I can destroy so nobody has a map of my brain…

Have you seen Devs (2020) series? From Hulu if I recall it correctly. The story rhymes with what you want.

I think the heart of the OP’s sentiment is to see all of the true results from the question, whereas an LLM could only provide imaginary possibilities. There’s nothing inherently more accurate about AI output than human imagination, since it is trained on it.
