OutsiderDiversityInjection#80fe

Seed a search with people experienced in unrelated fields plus a few domain experts

Mechanism

Novelty in a problem comes from cross-domain analogy. A group composed of many experts from other fields (a musician, a doctor, a firefighter) plus a handful of domain experts generates interventions that a pure domain group or an inexperienced crowd cannot, because the outsiders bring transferable experience.

Invariants

  • Outsiders bring deep experience elsewhere, not inexperience
  • A small domain-expert core anchors the search

Failure modes

  • Outsiders without any domain anchor
  • Anchors dominate and suppress outsider ideas

Identity

The name is the hash of the definition. Change a word and it becomes a different pattern.
