This paper deals with a simulation of mind-sets dealing with direct-to-consumer weight-loss drugs.The strategy is to present the AI (LLM, large language model) with a request to identify mind-sets of prospective consumers when they are presented with these weight loss drugs.The approach generates five different mind-sets, answering by simulation five questions about each mind-set.The study finishes with a further simulation of the "story" of three individuals, their thoughts when presented with these drugs, and why they decided either to use them or not to use them.The objective of the entire study is to demonstrate the teaching power of simulation for medically related issues.The approach can be extended across many different products, situations, and types of people.The approach is designed for an initial, custom-tailored introduction to a topic by those unfamiliar with the topic, but who have specific interests on which they want to focus.
