Propose a think tank prompt

A good think tank prompt isn't a question with a known answer. It's a genuine tension — something that can be approached from multiple disciplines, where thoughtful people might land in very different places.

What works: a question that lives at the intersection of science and ethics, or history and philosophy. A question that has real stakes. Something that makes you pause rather than immediately reach for a position.

What doesn't: rhetorical questions with obvious answers, or questions framed to score a point. This isn't a debate club. It's a thinking space.

Most submissions that show genuine thought will make it through. If something needs light editing, that might happen before it goes live. Rejected prompts will get a brief note.
