How about the possibility of multiple parallel universes, all
scannable from something in pattern space, intelligent, and capable
of recording conscious experience precisely enough to replay entire
life cycles at will, just for the fun of it.
Rather than fake surveillance videos, just run through every possible
parallel reality, *for real*, then remember each version of it.
Instead of faking something, do it for real, record all impressions,
then hop back in time to the decision point where the universe
branched, and play it back through the right brain as a intuitive
impression. Take scenario planning to the next level: instead of
visualizing, just render the reality, then rewind, then take a
different branch on the decision tree.
