Conversations are fundamentally generative processes.

  • Conversations are fundamentally generative processes.
    • The process of ping-ponging ideas back and forth unearths mutually interesting ideas.
    • Each volley is:
      • 1) a vote to keep going.
      • 2) a curation of which part to respond to.
    • An iterative "yes, and" that zeroes in on the most interesting thread.
    • The fact that two people find the thread interesting makes it an order of magnitude more likely another person would, too.
