## Before you start

Guidance from Reference, separate from the creator's instructions.

1. Read the reference and inspect the project, installed libraries, and available agent skills before writing code. Reuse suitable tools already present.
2. Prefer the creator-reported libraries and skills when they fit the task. Explain what useful additions help with, and install missing project dependencies or relevant skills from official sources when the environment and the user's existing permissions allow it. Respect the project's package manager and setup rules; do not ask again for routine setup already authorized.
3. Distinguish tools used by the creator from your own recommendations. A listed tool is not automatically required, and an empty tools or requirements list means the setup is unknown, not that nothing is needed.
4. Ask concise questions when missing inputs or choices materially affect the result: paid services, credentials, the user's assets, or a different production approach. Use existing answers and permissions; continue independent work while waiting.
5. If a useful library, skill, or service cannot be installed or used, explain an available alternative and its expected effect on quality, features, or effort. Get the user's choice before a material compromise; otherwise state the fallback and continue. Never silently simplify the result or claim to have used a tool you did not use.

## Recreating this video

This is a visual reference. No original creator prompt is available. The following brief was written by Reference after inspecting the work.

Explain another contested prediction through a set of concrete visual metaphors rather than a continuous slide deck. Pair each metaphor with a compact source clipping or numerical fact, and use one accent color for corrections and captions. Keep typography and backgrounds consistent across otherwise varied print, diagram, and dimensional scenes.

1. Open the live work or source and inspect the frame images below.
2. Adapt its layout, hierarchy, palette, and interaction patterns to the user's own content and brand.
3. Compare the result against the reference. Use your own assets and credit the original creator.

## What it looks like

Written by Reference from the video frames, not by the creator.

A graphic song-and-video collage about technology, work, and the future, featuring a robot, a telephone, a road, charts, and calendar imagery.

- Color: Charcoal black, warm off-white, muted gray, and vivid orange, with occasional yellow and teal accents.
- Type: Bold geometric sans-serif headlines and large numerals paired with smaller editorial-style serif text; orange caption bars with dark lettering.
- Framing: Flat, clean illustrations and infographic panels use strong contrast, oversized type, and occasional fine-line details.
- Structure: Distinct graphic scenes combine a central image or data display with headline text and a compact orange caption bar.
