In theory, such models can help us make better choices or prepare better for what comes next. The reality is more puzzling. Can we trust a model to tell us something inherently unknown? And what if the model we have trusted to guide misses a decisive point? We need to understand how integrated models work, what they can do, and their limits to make the most out of them.
