I agree with that. But having seen IBM ARC up close in person in the 1990s, my gut is that there is some critical mass of curiosity—a threshold number of curious researchers all working in the same place—that leads to a kind of magic you don’t see when the same people are more distributed geographically.

Good point, I agree! Something important to creating the right research lab team and culture.
