The Institute for Finnish Domestic Languages traces the term ”hybrid” back to biology, where ”a hybrid refers to the crossbreed of two different species, whether it concerns an animal (e.g., mule) or a plant.” In common language, ”hybrid” has spread in many other contexts as well. In the automotive industry, the term refers to a mixture of different types of power: a hybrid car has both a combustion and an electric motor. Both metaphors are suitable for modern Delphi. The method is used just as much quantitatively as qualitatively, in the present as well as in the future, in research as well as in practical development. The actual hybrid leap in development is, however, happening through the acceleration of generative artificial intelligence. Delphi will increasingly gain their momentum from artificial intelligence.
