You sit down for coffee with a friend, and right away, you notice something different. The usual gloom on their face has been replaced by a wide smile, possibly too wide. Before you can even ask, they eagerly dive into a story about how their life has taken a dramatic turn. They've discovered something game-changing, and they’re clearly excited for you to try it too.
"It's called Optimize AI," they explain. "It’s the perfect app to perfect your life. They’ve figured it all out. You just tell it the next decision you need to make, and the app’s model chooses the ideal option for you. Say you're deciding what to order for dinner—it considers your mood, how the food is prepared, and even how it will impact your current health. It factors in everything and gives you the perfect answer."
"No more settling for less," they continue, eyes gleaming with faltering enthusiasm. "Every decision, optimized for a perfect life. All you have to do is let it make the choices for you."
