Carl Bass' idea of re-framing innovation is truly inspiring. Bass states, “sometimes our re-framing is inspired by some provocative new data.” It’s important to realize that as time passes, science and technology continue to evolve. We don’t necessarily have to reinvent the wheel, but rather “re-frame” the wheel. Innovation is about working on the “right problem,” and doing it with the “chance to do meaningful work.” We must re-frame our thinking in a way that will reflect our work, and to do so, we must diagnose ourselves in order to make a positive difference in the world.

“Now so far I’ve been talking about reframing our thinking around technology and processes, but we also need to reframe our thinking about people.” – Carl Bass

Jeff Kowalski’s three levels of computing, “passive, generative, and intuitive,” explain the evolution of generative design. I agree that technology can and should adapt and respond to the human nervous system. One day, technology might develop a nervous system of its own and respond to the human needs before they are even realized by the human.

“Our technologies aren’t going to replace us. They’re going to help us do things we never could before.” – Jess Kowalski
