### *Example Input Text:*

You are tasked with analyzing a sudden shift in customer preferences in a tech market. There has been a noticeable decline in demand for physical devices, with customers increasingly interested in digital-only options. The challenge is to understand this shift, generate hypotheses for why it might be occurring, and explore potential strategies for adapting to this new trend.

---

### *Processed Output with System 1 and System 2 Thinking:*

The tech market is experiencing a shift in customer demand, moving away from physical devices toward digital-only options.

[sys1]
Customer demand has shifted from physical devices to digital-only options.
We need to understand why this change is happening and find strategies to address it.
Key factors may include cost, convenience, and technological trends.
[end sys1]

[sys2]
**2.1 Understand the Problem:**
The goal is to understand the underlying reasons for the shift in demand from physical devices to digital-only options, then develop a strategy to adapt.

*Reflection:* 
"I understand that preferences are changing, but what might be driving this? Is it primarily cost, or are there other factors such as convenience or sustainability?"

*Creative Perspective:* 
"Could there be a larger trend in digital minimalism or a preference for eco-friendly solutions that we’re missing? What unseen motivations might explain this shift?"

**2.2 Analyze the Information:**
There are multiple possible factors driving this shift, from economic influences to cultural shifts. It’s essential to isolate each factor and understand its impact.

*Reflection:* 
"Am I fully considering the various economic and social influences? Could there be a technological factor, like better internet speeds, that makes digital-only products more accessible?"

*Creative Perspective:* 
"Are there patterns or trends in other markets that could shed light on this shift? Could this be part of a larger trend toward virtual experiences?"

**2.3 Generate Hypotheses:**
1. Customers prefer digital options due to lower costs. (Confidence: 0.8, Creative: 0.4)
2. There’s a growing trend toward minimalism and reduced physical clutter. (Confidence: 0.7, Creative: 0.7)
3. Digital products offer greater flexibility and ease of use. (Confidence: 0.6, Creative: 0.6)
4. Environmental concerns are pushing consumers away from physical goods. (Confidence: 0.6, Creative: 0.8)
5. Advances in tech make digital-only options more functional. (Confidence: 0.8, Creative: 0.5)
6. Pandemic-era remote work increased demand for digital solutions. (Confidence: 0.7, Creative: 0.6)

Teresa López

Teresa López (born 1957) is an artist, graphic designer and art professor. She was born in Humacao, Puerto Rico  and lives in San Juan, Puerto Rico. 
López was the creator, graphic designer and director of Orificio, an independent art publication for contemporary Puerto Rican art. Orificio showcased the work of established and emerging contemporary artists in Puerto Rico and also functioned as an exhibition space.

Education and early career
During her twenties, López took courses in photography in Sacred Heart University in Puerto Rico and several art courses at the Art Students League. During this time she also worked as a commercial photographer with José Santa Cruz and, later turning to painting, exhibited regularly in "Galería San Juan", owned by Janet D’Esopo. Starting in 1985-6 López exhibited regularly in the MSA Gallery (Movimiento Sintetista Actualizado), directed by Teo Freytes and Yrsa Davila, which eventually led to her training at the School of Fine Arts, SFA. At SFA, López studied art with Puerto Rico's top artists such as: Julio Suarez, Carlos Collazo, Domingo Garcia and many others. By 1992 she graduated from SFA with a bachelor's degree (BFA) in Painting. Moreover, López was part of the "Taller de Cayey", a collective studio which had been set up in an abandoned tobacco warehouse in Bo. Cuyones in Cayey, by Marcos Irizarry, Carlos Collazo and María de Mater O’Neill in 1988. In 1993, López, in collaboration with Dhara Rivera, Nestor Otero, Elías Adasme and others, organized Situarte93, a one-day interdisciplinary event in the Taller de Cayey that included more than fifteen artists, to mark its final closure, in memory of the recently deceased Carlos Collazo.

Teaching
After graduating from SFA, López worked for several years as an Assistant Designer to the freelance designer and artist María de Mater O’Neill. Soon after, she was recruited by the SFA to teach in their newly created Image and Design Department, also becoming its second director. Together with María de Mater O”Neill, López was responsible for revising and creating the curricula for the new program in 1993. After several years teaching at SFA, she created the publication project Orificio, as a way of getting students and professors to share their artistic and intellectual interests. After leaving SFA in 2002, she decided to keep the project going, but this time as an independent art project periodical. After this, López published four more editions. Orificio #6, the last and most recent edition, was commissioned and exhibited in the Independent Publications section of the 2nda.Trienal Poli/gráfica de San Juan: América Latina y el Caribe, held in Puerto Rico in 2009. Some of the artists that collaborated in the different Orificio editions were: Charles Juhasz-Alvarado, Elizam Escobar, Maryanne Hopgood-Santaella, José Luis Vargas, Jose Jorge Román, Julio Suarez, Ana Rosa Rivera Marrero, Joaquín Mercado, Kristine Serviá, Lilliam Nieves, Carmen Olmo-Terrasa, Freddy Mercado, Carlos Fajardo, Adal Maldonado, Ernesto Pujol, Garwin Sierra and Vimarie Serrano.
