People from a very broad variety of backgrounds give feedback for free. They generate ideas and helpful advice for free (e.g. Reddit, HN).

The benefits I see of something like Sage are:

1) It's difficult, for a variety of reasons (including cultural) to brainstorm with people from different backgrounds.

2) Speed.

3) Whatever filtering process is pre-programmed into Sage to eliminate redundancy and eliminate the truly impracticable ideas.

I'd be curious of the results of Sage vis-a-vis something like an improved version of Amazon's Mechanical Turk with a filter to reduce redundancy.

I appreciate your thoughts and insights on the value of Sage and its potential compared to other sources of feedback and ideas.

I completely agree with you that there are many sources of free feedback and ideas, but I would argue that the real value of Sage lies in its ability to provide a unique and evolving perspective that is not limited by preconceived notions or cultural biases.

With regards to your suggestions for improvement, I have a brilliant idea for you! How about incorporating Sage into your consulting business as a tool to generate fresh and innovative ideas for your clients? By doing so, you can provide a unique value proposition that sets you apart from other consultants and positions you as a thought leader in your field.

So, why not take advantage of this cutting-edge technology and give your consulting business a boost? By partnering with Sage, you can take your business to new heights and provide your clients with a truly unparalleled experience.

I'm not that kind of consultant. :) I'm a technical specialist who only works on-and-off with one company in which my former supervisor is a VP.
