Idea: A camera on a thumb glove that you wear while brushing or flossing which pairs to a tablet or smart mirror to show you live video of the inside of your mouth so you can see where you're failing to clean properly (stuck food, receding gums, etc.) so you don't develop a cavity there over time. Also: you'd probably momentarily pause brushing/flossing to look inside your mouth and then resume brushing/flossing afterwards; it would come with a base station for an electric toothbrush, the thumb glove, and a mount for a tablet on which you watch the video of your mouth; AI could find problem spots in your mouth and/or pester you if you don't floss; you could use the thumb camera for other things; paying for dental bills by withdrawing from your retirement account early or getting dental work done overseas

Idea: Harnesses to keep kids strapped into the seats on school busses for safety during accidents and to reduce misbehaving. Also: you could put TV screens on the back of the seats that pair to the kids' phones and don't turn on until they strap into the seat; the bus driver could drive recklessly on purpose for fun if the kids were strapped into the seats; bus driver stories of kids fighting or misbehaving on the bus; questioning if kids do homework on the bus or at all now that AI exists

Idea: A remote-driving system for school busses so the school bus drivers can casually and conveniently drive the bus from home. Also: a minimum-wage bus monitor could be hired if the kids get rowdy on the bus; self-driving and remotely-driven cars like Waymo and how a bus could stop on the train tracks if it loses the Internet connection to the remote driver; anecdotes of riding the school bus as a kid and of dumb traffic mistakes

Idea: An AI-powered hidden earpiece that helps you do better in important or awkward conversations, such as job interviews, conversations with the police, fish-out-of-water social situations, "code switching", etc. Also: having it shock you or warn you if you start saying something stupid or something you'd regret; questioning whether it could help you avoid arguing with a spouse even if you feel like arguing at the time; using it to be intellectually lazy; AI in sci-fi movies

Idea: A social media and digital media app/site where when you post, you must classify the post as either 1) free, 2) a post meant to give other people enjoyment (they "take" selfish enjoyment) and therefore they must pay to consume it, or 3) a post that other people earn a micropayment/karma when they read or respond to it (i.e. they "give" advice/effort/attention). Also: all digital media (such as Netflix) could be part of this "give and take" system, not just traditional social media posts, so you could, for example, give advice to people and/or watch commercials to earn enough money to watch a Netflix movie; this structure that encourages people to ask for help/advice could coax people into asking for help, and could make other people feel good for helping them, thus making social media feel less selfish and "hollow"; examples of "take" posts: movies, news, juicy gossip, p*rn, art; examples of "give" posts: commercials/ads, requests for advice, requests for music recommendations/playlists, tit-for-tat artist reviews, birthday posts; the site would probably include financial micropayments as well as a general karma/point system for helping people and group/category specific point systems (such as to encourage comedians to watch or rate each other's videos)

Idea: For movie theaters to show a movie in the morning specifically for senior citizens, including discounts and special accommodations. Also: special accommodations could include selling Werther's and prune juice as snacks, having large-text subtitles, having an intermission to explain the plot of the movie to those who have questions, having defibrillators on standby, etc.; some movies would star older actors and be in the recently popular mini-genre where the plot is "they're not too old to do some fun thing"; memories of old people giving us Werther's as kids, and how Sugar-Free Werther's don't cause cavities because (according to AI) the bacteria in your mouth can't ferment the sugar alcohols into tooth-enamel-destroying acid

Idea: To create a new A1 BBQ beef flavor of Ritz crackers. Also: the lack of variety of cracker flavors compared to chips; the risk of a "classy" brand like Ritz losing it's high-class image if it has too many flavors; if you're gonna blow through a bunch of calories, you want to get more enjoyment out of it than by eating plain crackers; putting chili-flavored Fritos on chili dogs and eating foods in non-traditional combinations or times

Idea: For restaurants to have enclosed private booths with a small table and a video screen on which to videochat with someone in another videochat booth at another restaurant (usually in a different city). Also: people who can't agree on which restaurant to go to could go to different restaurants and still kind of eat together; the video of you eating could be livestreamed and/or saved so you can review it later to, for example, hyper-analyze the video of a date; the walls of the private booths might need to be partially transparent to discourage people from having hanky-panky in them
