The idea of a time-machine is neither new nor technologically incongruous. But what about a series of innovation-machines? Machines that churn out social-innovations, economic innovations, business innovations, marketing innovations, communication innovations, cultural innovations, entertainment innovations and a medley of other innovations?
Machines imply greater productivity – so what basic input-output factors will drive the scalability and sustainability of such machines? Will such innovation-machines ultimately become recursively innovative? Is this a scary Frankenstinean thought or will this facilitate and guide human societies to choose and adopt the right mix of utilitarian innovations?
So what will an innovation-machine look like? I intend to research on this a bit more, but in my current ignorant mind, I would think of such a machine to be a funnel that gets switched on by an orbit-shifting environment that processes breakthrough strategies, breakthrough ideas and breakthrough skills to produce the innovated environment that negates any challenges to the continued success of the entity.
So what do you think about such innovation-machines? I intend to understand how far such machines have been used so far in human existence. So until next Sunday, wishing you a very great time.
