It's hard to come across a text about IT without mentioning AI. Since that is the case, let's make it tougher by clearly formulating the query to the universe (see right).
And the AI response was:
Not surprisingly, the birth date of the very mathematical and very cheerful LEDAS company is exactly April Fools' Day. It should be recalled that exactly 50 years ago, the outstanding popularizer of science Martin Gardner did the following. On this day in 1975, he published an April's Fool hoax in Scientific American which claimed that Ramanujan had conjectured in a 1914 paper that
is an integer. Obviously, this couldn't be true. In fact it is about 262537412640768743.9999999999992500...
And today we remember not only that cute joke, but also celebrate the 26th anniversary of LEDAS that has made dozens of customers happy. How has it managed to do this all these years? The secret is simple! And everyone who can read will know about it right now.
To make an outstanding project, it is important not only to have an excellent developer (of course, I mean LEDAS), but also to have right priorities. Let's take a look at the following diagram, where the colors of the letters in help us to better see the correspondence of entities.
Here you can clearly see what happens when you try to quickly make something of high quality without thinking about the costs. Yes, you get an awful ghost project. And if you focus on quality at low cost, you get gaps between both desired and actual time to market and between expected and actual quality.
Some may think that the worst choice is speed + low price. That's exactly what you get and it's a complete cheat. But there is something even worse: trying to get all three components at once. That's when the project turns into foolscap, and the customer ends up in a fool's cap.
You realize that customers of real CAD/CAE/CAM projects cannot be so naive as to fall into such traps. Truly qualified and competent customers, the kings among the intellectual elite, see the correct diagram quite differently:
This is the source of success of all LEDAS customers. And it is also the answer to how to become so cool.
A long time ago, LEDAS emerged from an artificial intelligence lab. So the employees look at the world roughly as follows: every person is, in a sense, an artificial intelligence, trained on a rather limited sample of their observations of the world around them. Why? Because artificiality (the state of being artificial, anthropogenic, or man-made) is the state of being the product of intentional human manufacture, rather than occurring naturally through processes not involving or requiring human activity (see wiki). So our human intelligence is definitely artificial intelligence too.
And LEDAS is no exception. It learns, develops, trains, tests hypotheses and grows too. We are all artificial intelligences that are eager to master new things, from digital medicine to buildings. And it gets better every year! Happy birthday LEDAS!
