AI - The future is clear; the roadmap is published.



Leading tech companies reveal their inventions years ahead, but these papers are dense and focused on science, not product opportunities.


Now, LLMs translate this scientific complexity into accessible insights. (OK, this would have replaced part of my last role at Adobe šŸ˜³)


Imagine taking a highly scientific paper and converting it into:


āœ“ A TITLE that we can all understand

āœ“ WHY the technology matters

āœ“ CUSTOMERS who might benefit from the technology

āœ“ NAMEs of features or products

āœ“ POTENTIAL -- for how big the market might be

āœ“ RISKS - What are the risks involved in the new tech

āœ“ COMPETING IDEAS in the space

ā€¦ and on and on and on.

āžŒStart with a prompt like this:


ā–ŗ ////Act as an expert who can bridge between scientific research and practical applications. Write in the style of the author Michael Lewis and target the writing to a 12th-grade level. Create a report that includes:Ā 


(a) Under the heading ā€œTITLE,ā€ write a compelling title that can be easily understood

(b) in a paragraph titled ā€œWHY,ā€ a statement on why this technology matters

(c) in a paragraph titled ā€œCUSTOMERS,ā€ a statement on how customers might use the technology. Create a sentence for each for professionals, education, and consumers.

(d) In a paragraph titled ā€œNAMESā€ create five compelling names for the product or features that could come from this technology

(e) in a paragraph titled, ā€œPOTENTIAL,ā€ create a narrative describing how this technology could create a new $1B market

(f) in a paragraph titled, ā€œRISKSā€ highlight any risks in bringing this technology to market. Include bias, misuse, and nefarious usage by bad actors.Ā 

(g) in a paragraph titled, ā€œCOMPETING IDEASā€, highlight the other researchers or companies that are working on similar ideas

(h) what are some of the critical areas Iā€™ve missed?\\\\


āž From here, youā€™ll want to probe with prompts like:

ā–ŗ ā€œGive me more information on the section about ____ā€

ā–ŗ ā€œWhat might this mean for a customer in the [animation / biotech / fintech / etc] marketā€

ā–ŗ ā€œModify this to an audience of a [legal advisor / CFO / Series A investor / etc]ā€

ā–ŗ ā€œRewrite this in the style of [The MIT Tech Review / Wired / Hunter S Thompson / etc]ā€


There's so much more... If you are interested in learning more, drop me a line.Ā
