Coevolving Innovations

… in Business Organizations and Information Technologies

About coevolving.com

Coevolving.com originated as a blog shared by some like-minded practitioners working at the intersection of information technology and business: David Ing, Doug McDavid and Martin Gladwell.

In late 2006, by mutual agreement, we put the blog onto hiatus. Shortly thereafter, David Ing reactivated the blog as his professional persona (apart from the photoblogging at daviding.com).  There’s more about David Ing in a professional about page, as well as a personal about page.

In mid-2007, Doug McDavid started blogging at dougmcdavid.com (which has now become dormant).  As of 2009, he was blogging at enterprisology.com/blog.  Doug passed away in 2020.

At the founding of this blog (in 2006), the key contributors were all employees of IBM, spread across three different countries. The postings on this site reflect the personal viewpoints of each author, and don’t necessarily represent IBM’s positions, strategies or opinions.

      Truthiness was coined by Stephen Colbert in 2005, and became legitimated as an entry in a dictionary by 2010. > ... _truth_ just wasn’t “dumb enough.” “I wanted a silly word that would feel wrong in your mouth,” he said. > What he was driving at wasn’t _truth_ anyway, but a mere approximation of it […]

      Generative AI, such as ChatGPT, may be better viewed as putting together hypotheses, where testing either leads to corroboration or truthiness. > The glitch seems to be a linear consequence of the fact that so-called Large-Language Models are about predicting what _sounds right_, based on its huge data sets. As a commenter put it in […]
