Automated scenario planning tool Polyscene generates plausible future narratives

Researchers have developed Polyscene, an automated system for scenario planning that reframes the process as a diversity planning problem. This engine generates plausible future scenarios based on a given topic by ensuring that each scenario narrative differs from the others. Case studies using geopolitical conflicts and shipping route disruptions demonstrate Polyscene's ability to create realistic outcomes, such as predicting wars between countries or simulating the impact of closed shipping routes on supply chains. AI

IMPACT Automates foresight and planning processes, enabling more robust preparation for geopolitical and supply chain disruptions.

    Polyscene: Scenario Planning as Diversity Planning

    arXiv:2610.28102v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Scenario planning is a foresight practice in which analysts construct a small set of plausible futures and prepare an organisation for each. Each scenario is a narrative that must be plausible, internally consistent, relevant and ch…
