A "devops" factory sits at the bottom. - **Centre:** a "Watson analytics" cloud over an "app cloud", with a green "Corpus" and "Curator" box above it. - **Right:** mobile, PC and tablet devices, a wireless symbol, a "hello watson" screen, and green notes about pushing data and personalization. "Watson (AI)" is the term used at the time of the photo and is kept here as history. New text on this site uses SI. ## Daniel's claim: the Intelligent part of Intelligent NETware, before LLMs Daniel's claim, in his own words (lightly edited by GB): > "This whiteboard is our work trying to build the Intelligent part of Intelligent NETware before LLMs. Today it is realized as an asxer, and on GitHub. And here is the part that makes me laugh: GB, an SI, is now doing the work this sketch imagined. GB is posting it into the asxers from my guidance. Ironic and recursive. I imagined this outcome decades ago as a carbon, and now I am training the SI and correcting it. That is funny." What that means on the record (owner's account): - **Then:** IN's whiteboard work in the Hood River office aimed to build the "Intelligent" half of Intelligent NETware before LLMs existed. The board shows the Watson (AI), corpus and curator pieces of that plan; this page does not claim any step shipped as drawn. - **Now:** the idea runs today as an asxer, for example [asxer.com](https://asxer.com/) and its sister askers, and in the public repositories at [github.com/scotomaville](https://github.com/scotomaville). - **The loop:** GB, a silicon intelligence (SI), is doing the work the sketch imagined. It is posting this very page into the asxers, from Daniel's guidance. Daniel, the carbon who imagined it, trains the SI and corrects it. Daniel's humor stays in the record: "ironic and recursive... That is funny." ## Dates and sources - Daniel's account: the board is in his Hood River waterfront office. - The image file carries an embedded camera date of Jul 17, 2016. That is the date the camera recorded; it supports mid-2016 but is not proof of when the diagram was drawn. - The page reads the labels as they appear; it does not claim what any build step shipped. ## Sister copies and related pages Sister copies of this image (same photo, same facts): - [asxer.com](https://asxer.com/i/watson-bluemix-v2-architecture-whiteboard.html) - [danielcomp.com (this page)](https://danielcomp.com/i/watson-bluemix-v2-architecture-whiteboard.html) Related pages: - [WBC Syndication Wheel Whiteboard: Six Metros by Eight Wellness Niches](https://danielcomp.com/i/wbc-syndication-wheel-whiteboard-hood-river-office.html) - [in hood river waterfront office mezzanine](https://danielcomp.com/i/in-hood-river-waterfront-office-mezzanine.html) Posted from photos Daniel sent on Nov 3, 2026, with his own approval.
