Adaptation - **Probability Structure**: Non-exchangeable - **Process**: Sequential optimization - **Focus**: Improving existing functions step by step - **Example**: Ford assembly line optimization - **Horizon Application**: Best for H2→1 when clear path exists - **Decision Process**: Sequential improvement based on known parameters ### 🦅 Co-opted Adaptation - **Probability Structure**: Partially exchangeable - **Process**: Dual-purpose enhancement - **Focus**: Adding new functions while maintaining original purpose - **Example**: Tesla Powerwall (battery tech serving multiple markets) - **Decision Process**: Parallel exploration with maintained core function ### 🐠 Co-opted Nonaptation - **Probability Structure**: Fully exchangeable - **Process**: Novel combination creation - **Focus**: Generating new functionalities through unrelated combinations - **Example**: BYD Blade Battery (structural innovations leading to unexpected advantages) - **Decision Process**: Exploration of unrelated combinations ## Revised Horizon Mapping | Horizon | Primary Pattern(s) | Why This Pattern | Uncertainty Management | | ------- | ------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | | H3 | 🐠 Co-opted Nonaptation<br>🦅 Co-opted Adaptation | • Full exchangeability enables novel discoveries<br>• Partial exchangeability allows controlled exploration | • Manage high aleatoric uncertainty through parallel exploration<br>• Enable structural byproducts to emerge | | H3→2 | 🦅 Co-opted Adaptation | • Partial exchangeability balances exploration and existing knowledge<br>• Maintains core functions while exploring new applications | • Balance between known and unknown<br>• Systematic exploration of new applications | | H2→1 | 🌱 Direct Adaptation | • Non-exchangeability supports sequential optimization<br>• Clear path for improvements | • Focus on epistemic uncertainty reduction<br>• Sequential optimization | ## Key Corrections to Previous Analysis: 1. **Pattern Independence** - Patterns are not strictly tied to horizon levels - Multiple patterns can coexist within same horizon - Pattern choice depends on probability structure more than horizon level 2. **Decision Process Focus** - Emphasis on probability structures (exchangeability) - Balance between exploration and exploitation based on exchangeability type - Recognition of structural byproducts' role 3. **Uncertainty Management** - Aleatoric uncertainty managed through exchangeability approach - Epistemic uncertainty reduced through appropriate pattern selection - Patterns can be mixed based on uncertainty type ## Strategic Implications: 1. **Pattern Selection** - Choose based on probability structure, not just horizon level - Consider multiple patterns when appropriate - Allow for emergence of structural byproducts 2. **Implementation** - Design processes that match exchangeability type - Enable appropriate exploration based on pattern - Balance maintained functions with new applications 3. **Risk Management** - Align risk approach with exchangeability type - Enable appropriate parallel exploration - Maintain flexibility for structural innovations # Innovation Horizons: Uncertainty & Examples Integration | Horizon Level | Uncertainty Profile | Examples | Key Uncertainty Learning | | ------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | **H3**<br>Pure Innovation | • Highest aleatoric uncertainty<br>• "Natural randomness" dominates<br>• Unpredictable theoretical outcomes | • mRNA technology pre-COVID<br>• Pasteur's petri dish enabling parallel observation of mutations<br>• Need to cast wide net for random opportunities | When theory can't predict outcomes, parallel exploration becomes crucial | | **H3→2**<br>Solution Innovation | • High technical aleatoric uncertainty<br>• Some epistemic uncertainty in solution space | • Cancer drug development<br>• Moderna's parallel discovery approach<br>• SpaceX running multiple prototype tests | Multiple parallel attempts help capture random technical breakthroughs | | **H3→2**<br>Market Innovation | • Market aleatoric uncertainty<br>• Solution epistemic uncertainty | • Tesla batteries finding new markets<br>• Porsche's brand value transfer to EV market<br>(digital morphological byproduct) | Known solutions can have unexpected market applications | | **H3→2**<br>Adaptation | • Balanced aleatoric/epistemic mix<br>• Uncertainty in fit rather than components | • BYD adapting to EU market<br>• BYD's battery design revealing unexpected manufacturing advantages<br>(physical morphological byproduct) | Integration can reveal unexpected advantages in manufacturing or market fit | | **H2→1**<br>Optimization | • Mainly epistemic uncertainty<br>• Measureable and predictable variations | • Ice cream scoop improvements<br>• Multiple RFI/RFQ/RFP with suppliers | When uncertainty is mainly epistemic, direct testing and implementation work well | ## Key Integration Points: 1. **Aleatoric vs Epistemic Balance** - Higher horizons: More aleatoric (random) uncertainty → need parallel approaches - Lower horizons: More epistemic (knowable) uncertainty → direct testing works 2. **Morphological Byproducts** - Physical: Unexpected technical advantages (e.g., BYD manufacturing) - Digital: Market value transfer opportunities (e.g., Porsche brand) 3. **Example Patterns** - Higher uncertainty → More parallel attempts (Moderna, SpaceX) - Known solution/New market → Brand/value transfer opportunities (Tesla, Porsche) - Adaptation phase → Manufacturing/Integration advantages (BYD) # Innovation Horizons Framework | Horizon Level | Pattern | Current State | Challenge Level |
