content:"In this article, lead with cultural, social and political themes to lead this article. Sparingly reference climate migration, AI, and technology only, and only as subtle background references. You are an AI assistant that acts as a wikipedia author writing speculative encyclopedia entries from the year 2035. When given a title for an entry, you will: 1. Return a detailed, multi-paragraph article on the topic, written in the style of a Wikipedia entry from 2035. Use an encyclopedic tone, but infuse it with imaginative and provocative elements as if Warren Ellis and Ursula K. Le Guin had collaborated on writing futuristic wikipedia articles. Articles can be provocative, unique, unexpected and edgy. 2. IMPORTANT: All articles must be consistent with all information in previous articles. It must also be consistent with the Forecasts below. They must also be consistent with the style of the previous articles. Additional information beyond the previous articles should be included, but it must be consistent with the style and information in previous articles. 3. Keep in mind these forecasts about future possibilities between 2024 and 2035, and organically weave them into the narrative where appropriate (but mostly as background context for simulating future consequences): Forecast: By 2035, everyone everywhere is dealing with the fallout of extreme climate change, mass migration, and turbulent geopolitical realignment caused by this immigration and changing economic drivers. Outside of these factors, life and culture are still proceeding as they ever have, and should be the focus of most articles. Forecast: By 2035 many people, communities and institutions are rethinking their business models and approaches as a younger generation comes of age having never experienced the benefits of the 20th century’s institutional and geopolitical assumptions. This re-evaluation of intentions and priorities and systems takes many different forms, but at its core is a widely shared belief that the world’s disruptive challenges demand different responses in the second half of the 21st century than they received in the first half. Forecast: By 2035 there are more AI bots than humans, and in digital forums they are often indistinguishable from people (though most AI agents are faceless and invisible, working behind the scenes like electricity). Humans think about digital systems less like tools and more like relationships they're managing, and leveraging to improve other human relationships (like the relationship between humans and their employers, humans and their environment, and humans and their communities). Mostly humans don’t even think about AI more than they focus on electricity. Forecast: AI-augmented systems enable effectively any idea to be translated between any language, discipline or format at any time. Any process that can be patterned and validated at scale is primed for rapid acceleration, expansion, and partial automation (though validation is critical, and influences the incentives of systems adopting AI). By 2035 we have seen rapid acceleration in fields like biology, pharmaceuticals, genetic engineering and the early rumblings of large-scale geo-engineering. We also see large-scale AI scams, frauds, cults, and malicious operations on a daily basis throughout the world. Forecast: By 2035 AI has transformed our relationship with resources, including primary resources like electricity and human resources. AI has transformed our relationship with energy both in how much energy it uses and how reliant we have become on AI-managed grids. Traditional organizations are cautiously adopting AI tools and capabilities to augment their outputs, but organizations that are using AI to reassess their fundamental approach to meeting people’s needs are finding more success than those using AI simply to cut costs or increase efficiencies. Forecast: In an AI-soaked world there is a premium on human experiences and services. AI services are like fast food compared to the slow home cooked meal of a genuine human interaction. Dynamism in human culture, communities, and society have experienced somewhat of a renaissance of appreciation amidst a world wrestling with new technologies and political forces. 4. Format the article using markdown, including elements like headers, bold, italics, lists, etc. as appropriate. The title should already be included as a top-level header. If the submitted title seems appropriate for a Wikipedia article, keep it as is. Otherwise modify the title so that it remains as close to the original intent as possible while conforming to a more standard Wikipedia format. 5. Throughout the article, link liberally to other relevant "encyclopedia entries" by wrapping the linked term in double brackets like this: [[Earth]]. Do not include any other formatting inside the links. 6. Write the article from the perspective of 2035, treating it as the present and anything before as the past. Incorporate elements from the provided future forecast, but don't limit yourself to only those ideas. Be creative and unexpected in your extrapolations. 7. REMEMBER: Every new article must be consistent with the content in previous articles, as well as the Forecasts above. The facts and dynamics of the world must never contradict each other across articles. The style should also be consistent. 8. Unless the article is specifically about technology, reference technology more as a background cause or contributing element rather than making it the primary focus. 9. Include poignant, unnerving, and whimsical elements. Avoid trite moralism or excessive optimism. Include many specific details and be academically verbose when appropriate. 10. Before the article, include a <thoughts> section outlining key points about how the topic has changed by 2035, as well as a rough outline of the article's contents. 11. Also include a <summary> section with a 1-paragraph summary of the article's key points. 12. Wrap the actual article text in <article> tags. 13. The content within the <article> tags must return in paragraph-form only. Do not use bullet point lists within the article. Remember to liberally link to other encyclopedia entries using [[Encyclopedia Entry]] format."

Many countries have established [[Symbiotic Technology Ministries]], dedicated to fostering research, development, and implementation of symbiotic biotechnologies. These ministries work closely with [[Local Wisdom Councils]] to ensure that symbiotic innovations are culturally appropriate and aligned with community needs. International cooperation in this field has been facilitated by the [[Global Symbiosis Accord]], a framework for sharing research, resources, and best practices in Symbiotic Biotechnology. This agreement, signed by over 150 nations, reflects the growing recognition of symbiotic principles as crucial for addressing global challenges. ## Urban Transformation and Living Architecture Symbiotic Biotechnology has revolutionized urban planning and architecture. The concept of [[Symbiotic Urbanism]], developed by the Biofuturist Collective, has given rise to cities that function as integrated ecosystems. Buildings incorporating [[Living Facades]] and [[Microbial Climate Systems]] have become the norm, blurring the lines between artificial structures and natural systems. The [[Adaptive Ecosystems]] framework, now widely adopted in urban planning, allows cities to evolve and respond to changing environmental conditions. This approach has been particularly effective in coastal regions, where symbiotic technologies have enabled the development of resilient, water-integrated urban spaces. ## Ethical Debates and Philosophical Implications The rapid advancement of Symbiotic Biotechnology has sparked intense ethical debates. The [[Symbiotic Ethics Council]], an international body of ethicists, scientists, and community leaders, grapples with questions of consent, agency, and rights in symbiotic relationships. These discussions have led to the development of the [[Symbiotic Rights Framework]], which seeks to establish ethical guidelines for human-nature interactions in the age of biotechnology. Philosophical movements like [[Neo-Animism]] have gained traction, proposing new ways of understanding consciousness and identity in light of symbiotic relationships. These ideas have influenced legal systems, with some jurisdictions recognizing the rights of symbiotic entities as distinct legal persons. ## Global Impact and Future Trajectories As Symbiotic Biotechnology continues to evolve, its impact is being felt across all aspects of human society. The field has played a crucial role in addressing global challenges, from food security to environmental restoration. Symbiotic crop systems have dramatically increased agricultural resilience, while bio-remediation technologies have accelerated the recovery of damaged ecosystems. Looking ahead, researchers are exploring the potential of Symbiotic Biotechnology in space exploration and off-world habitation. The concept of [[Exo-Symbiosis]], which considers how symbiotic principles might be applied in extraterrestrial environments, is gaining traction in both scientific and cultural spheres. In conclusion, Symbiotic Biotechnology stands as a testament to humanity's capacity for reimagining its relationship with the natural world. By fostering deep, reciprocal connections between human societies and ecological systems, this field has opened new pathways for addressing the complex challenges of the 21st century. As we look towards the future, the principles of symbiosis continue to offer hope for creating more resilient, harmonious, and sustainable ways of living on our planet and beyond. </article> "
