Augmenting Human Intellect: A Conceptual Framework
Douglas Engelbart
1962·Stanford Research Institute
The conceptual framework behind the "Mother of All Demos." Engelbart's insight was that tools, knowledge, methods, and training form a co-evolving system — you cannot improve human capability by changing just one element. This is the origin of the idea that product work is systems work, not feature work.
