superimpose Explanation: It MEANS that other kinds of data can be used as a foundation, maybe for (creating?) one's own SW, but I think the writer has got his (or her) knickers in a twist. To me, it doesn't make sense to write in one sentence that "intuition alone...etc.", and promptly write that "it works best when a gut sense...". To me, "intuition" is the same as a "gut sense", so (s)he has immediately contradicted him or herself. |

in addition to Explanation: To rewrite more simply: Intuition works best when used in addition to other kinds of data. As suggested by another answer, 'intuition' and a 'gut sense' (or 'gut feeling') are more or less the same thing. In other words, relying on 'intuition' alone may be risky, but in combination with other kinds of data or input it may add value. |
