Sentient world: war games on the grandest scale

Yep - it's scary.
There's a parallel world out there where probably 95% of the global population have been individually simulated and can be digitally prodded and poked to see how they will respond in any given circumstance. Program the desired outcome and let AI devise the required prods and pokes (psyops) an individual or group requires to get there.
Dig "Sentient World Simulation" - there's a lot out there that will cause you to shudder.
