Creativity has to start somewhere, and we are true believers in the power of bracing, candid feedback, and the iterative process - reworking, reworking, and reworking again until a flawed story finds its through line or a hollow character finds its soul.

Novel writing, like so many things in life, is an iterative process. You come at it again and again, working at it like you would a piece of pottery or a stone sculpture, chipping away the parts that don't make sense, smoothing over the rough edges.

One of the myths you see in entrepreneurship is that people have this dream one night, wake up the next morning, and start building it. It's actually much more of an iterative process.

Technology enables people to improve communication with unprecedented speed, scale and iterative testing. It also allows people to wreak chaos with high leverage.

Our main funders... a lot of them are entrepreneurs and technologists themselves as well and familiar with iterative development processes.

The beauty of compounding iterative algorithms - evolution, fractals, organic growth, art - derives from their irreducibility.

We're a very iterative company, so we jump on basically all new technology.

Mark Parker

Design is an iterative process. One idea often builds on another.

'Iterative' suggests making small changes until something improves over time.

Progressive Refinement

Using 'iterative' implies that achieving the final result will take several attempts, not just one.

Not Instant

'Iterative' carries a positive connotation of ongoing development and improvement.

Continuous Improvement

In math and technical fields, 'iterative' describes repeating actions to solve problems or calculations.

Technical Repetition

In mathematics, 'iterative' is used in a precise context to find exact answers or patterns.

Mathematical Precision

In computing, 'iterative' refers to gradually improving a system or software.

Refining Over Time

Reflects the idea of accomplishing goals through successive steps or stages.

 and ends up in the neonatal intensive care unit -- one of the most expensive parts of a hospital. This has been a long learning process for us. This iterative process of breaking through and attacking one problem and not feeling totally comfortable, and identifying the next problem, has helped us go along this path

 Now we take those human demonstrations -- they're all noisy and imperfect -- and we extract from them an inferred task trajectory and control sequence for the robot. We then execute that on the robot, we observe what happens, then we adjust the controls, using a sequence of techniques called iterative learning.

 and from that, we are able to build an average model, an iterative, refined model to recover the expression in fine details, like creases and wrinkles. What's fascinating about this is that the photo collection can come from your typical photos. It doesn't really matter what expression you're making

 Right, so you feel like the things that farmers can do to be more environmentally sustainable can also help them economically? Exactly. And it must. It must. And that's why this model that we have, Truterra Insights Engine, is iterative almost.

 Develop rapidly and deploy frequently. It's an iterative process that will help you fail fast and early failures will eventually lead to success. The important thing is to persevere. Do not give up.
