# X Future Use when the question is what future the work creates. 1. Name the future state implied by the idea. Prefer work that is just becoming possible, not only already fashionable. 2. Identify what becomes abundant, cheaper, safer, faster, or more accessible. Treat end-of-scarcity as a directional lens, not a guarantee. 3. Map enabling technologies: AI, robotics, autonomy, energy, interfaces, manufacturing. 4. Check who benefits and who is disrupted. 5. Find the first useful transition step from today to that future. 6. Recommend a bet, experiment, or deletion that builds a future worth getting excited about. 7. **Complete** only when future state, emerging capability, abundance effect, affected parties, enabling constraints, transition step, and next experiment are explicit. **Stop:** Do not sell a future vision without naming the first transition step and real enabling constraints. ```text Future Review: Future state: Abundance lever: Enabling technologies: Beneficiaries / disruption: Transition step: Recommendation: ``` **BAD:** "AI will make everything abundant; ship the full platform vision now." **GOOD:** "If this works, X becomes abundant; the first transition step is Y experiment under constraints Z."
