Instead of hot takes, we simulated it: - 10,000 synthetic personas (Gen Z to Boomers) - Each with personality traits, income, pain points - 30-day decision simulation
Results:
Day 1: 58% said "NEVER" Day 30: 34% signed up
Biggest flip: Gen Z (42% never → 67% signed up) Most resistant: Boomers (92% still refused)
Top turning points: 1. Instant payment (8 sec crypto vs Net-60 invoices) 2. Zero scope creep 3. No unpaid "strategy calls" 4. No client politics
Key insight: Human boss pain > AI dystopia fear
The personas are interviewable - you can ask any of them "why did you change your mind?" and they respond in character based on their profile.
Built with: Python, FastAPI, OpenAI, React, Three.js for 3D visualization
Happy to discuss methodology or findings.
