Definition

Technologies of foolishness (March, 2007) --
Technologies of foolishness are an answer to the need to deliberately induce greater variation in order to supplement exploration beyond what the technologies of rationality and adaptive feedback can provide. These technologies include foolishness, brainstorming, identity-based avoidance of the strictures of consequences, devil's advocacy, conflict, and weak memories.
