([Birisi](https://twitter.com/stef/status/1617222428727586816) soruları temel alarak cevap verebilecek bir şey yapmak için makalelerimi GPT'ye yükledi, sonra da iyi fikirlerin nereden geldiğini sordu.
Cevap iyiydi ama benim söyleyeceğim şey değildi. Ben olsam şöyle derdim.)

Yeni fikirler elde etmenin yolu anormalliklere fark etmektir: Tuhaf, eksik veya bozuk görünen şey nedir? Günlük yaşamda anormallikler görebilirsiniz (stand-up komedisinin büyük bir kısmı buna dayanıyor) ancak onları aramanın en iyi yeri bilginin sınırlarıdır.

Bilgi fraktal bir şekilde büyür. Uzaktan bakıldığında kenarları pürüzsüz görünür ancak bir tanesine yaklaşacak kadar öğrendiğinizde boşluklarla dolu olduğunu fark edersiniz.
Bu boşluklar bariz görünecektir; kimsenin x'i denememiş ya da y'yi merak etmemiş olması açıklanamaz görünecektir.
En iyi durumda, bu boşlukları keşfetmek yepyeni fraktal tomurcuklar ortaya çıkarır.

*([Someone](https://twitter.com/stef/status/1617222428727586816) fed my essays into GPT to make something that could answer questions based on them, then asked it where good ideas come from. The answer was ok, but not what I would have said. This is what I would have said.)*

The way to get new ideas is to notice anomalies: what seems strange, or missing, or broken? You can see anomalies in everyday life (much of standup comedy is based on this), but the best place to look for them is at the frontiers of knowledge.

Knowledge grows fractally. From a distance its edges look smooth, but when you learn enough to get close to one, you'll notice it's full of gaps. These gaps will seem obvious; it will seem inexplicable that no one has tried x or wondered about y. In the best case, exploring such gaps yields whole new fractal buds.
