Here is Adam DeJans’ advice: https://shorturl.at/x2OzU
See Martin Milani‘s answer: “Novelty is not born from history. It arises from logic, imagination, and reasoning: asking “what if?”, testing counterfactuals, building on principles, and pushing beyond what data alone can reveal. Every major leap in science and technology — from Newton’s laws to Gödel’s incompleteness proofs — came not from extrapolating datasets, but from reasoning that transcended them.
And Einstein? He didn’t have mountains of data. What he had were logical thought experiments chasing beams of light in his imagination — that reshaped physics with reasoning and logic. As he famously said: ‘Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited to all we now know and understand, while imagination embraces the entire world, and all there ever will be to know and understand.'” Link
Tiago de Morais Montanher altered the data for the classic transportation problem to render the problem infeasible. Then he called the conflict refiner from CPLEX to obtain a list with 5 points like the one below:
_TConflictConstraint(name=’capacity_seattle’, element=docplex.mp.LinearConstraint[capacity_seattle](quantity_seattle_new_york+quantity_seattle_chicago+quantity_seattle_topeka,LE,350), status=<ConflictStatus.Member: 3>)
Finally, he asked Perplexity to clarify these conflicts for decision-makers and propose actions to rectify the formulation. The results were impressive: Link. Also see Adam DeJons’s post
Peter Voss will present “Beyond LLMs: INSA – Integrated Neuro-Symbolic Architecture” at DecisionCAMP-2025 on Sep 23. Meanwhile, you may read his article “The Jury is out: Scaling LLMs will not get us to Real Intelligence. What will?” about the importance of real-time incremental, lifelong learning.
This topic has been of interest to many rule engine vendors and practitioners for years. There was an interesting discussion about an integrated use of Business Rules and DB a year ago: https://lnkd.in/ecych49r
What do you think today about the relationships between databases and the modern DI platforms?
