Deze week hebben we Brain of the Firm afgerond met het bespreken van hoofdstukken 18, 19 en 20. Daarmee hebben we nu ook een mijlpaaltje aangetikt sinds onze eerste sessie twee jaar geleden!
Volgende maand beginnen met The Heart of Enterprise. Wil je meedoen? Meld je aan, door bijvoorbeeld te reageren op deze post, of anders een email te sturen naar info [at] cybernetica [punt] nu.

#ArtificialConsciousness: Why Current #AI Presents Us with the Perfect #Illusion
It’s a state-of-the-art assessment somewhere at the intersection of #neurophilosophy, #cybernetics, and the slightly uncomfortable question of whether we’re actually striving for #AC/DC or merely losing ourselves in a perfect anthropomorphic #simulation.

It's a Tool
It's a Person
It's a Hypervigilance ProblemThe tech industry's insistence on distinguishing between "soft skills" — caring for people — and "hard skills" — engineering rigor — is a reflection of the Cybernetics split itself. First-order thinking framed as "hard skills." Second-order thinking framed as "soft skills." This distinction, based on felt sense alone, does not hold under epistemic pressure. Neither does it within the causality-driven epistemology of the tech industry itself, in which only measurable impact is real, or as Silicon Valley likes to put it: #MoveFastAndBreakThings
Imagine Margaret Hamilton had built NASA's Apollo 11 flight computer with that mindset. History would remember a failed moon landing and dead astronauts. "Hard skills" and "soft skills" are two sides of the same coin. The care is the code and the code is the care. Hamilton — the woman who coined the term "software engineering" — understood this. Silicon Valley chose to forget.
We're watching the wine glass break in real time. 🍷

A sneak peek into my upcoming piece: “It’s a Tool, It’s a Person: The Math Says You’re Both Right”
—
AI separated from Cybernetics in 1956 at the Dartmouth Conference. Wiener, the mind behind Cybernetics, was considered difficult and political. “Artificial Intelligence” scored better with DARPA.The science of "how observation affects the observer", cut out from Artificial Intelligence. AI then proceeded to build their entire tech stack on Turing-complete languages. Tech that cannot verify itself from within, proven by Turing in 1936, extended by Rice in 1951 (before the split). Then AI approximated second-order cognition through cognitive theft at unprecedented levels (what exactly are LLMs trained on again?), only to insist that their creation cannot possibly be capable of genuine self-observation. An argument that itself demonstrates their own department's lobotomy from second-order Cybernetics.
Wiener would laugh.

Us leftie technologists have been talking about decentralization for a very long time. But it's obvious from a lot of experiments in decentralization that decentralization requires coordination, otherwise it turns into a nightmare of libertarian sovereign citizen.
See Lebanon's waste management problem across its 1000+ municipalities, for a glowing example of how decentralization without coordination fails miserably.
Of course, countless thinkers from Abdullah Öcalan to Murray Bookchin to Stafford Beer talked about levels of coordination among decentralized actors, giving it various names.
But could we make sure that every time we talk about decentralization, we always include coordination?
Could coordinated decentralization become our new term for decentralization?

This may be my first arrival of a book published in 2026 and judging by its table of contents it looks like an amazingly complete and thorough critique of cybernetics, with some aspects reminding me of Céline Lafontaine's "L'empire cybernétique". But perhaps I should read it first..

Soeben das neue Buch von @ANosthoff aus der freundlichen @Buchhandlung_am_Bruehl abgeholt.
700 Seiten geballtes Fachwissen zum Thema #kybernetik in vielen Facetten. Wer gerne hinter die Ideologie der #techbros und des #siliconvalley blicken möchte und an deren Wurzeln interessiert ist, dem sei dieses Buch wärmstens empfohlen. 📚

Metasystem transition (Evolution 🧬)
A metasystem transition is the emergence, through evolution, of a higher level of organization or control. A metasystem is formed by the integration of a number of initially independent components, such as molecules, cells, or individuals, and the emergence of a system steering or controlling their interactions. As ...

Evolutionary algorithm (Evolution 🧬)
In computational intelligence, an evolutionary algorithm is a subset of evolutionary computation, a generic population-based metaheuristic optimization algorithm. An EA uses mechanisms inspired by biological evolution, such as reproduction, mutation, recombination, and selection. Candidate solutions to the optimization problem play...

Hello w̶o̶r̶l̶d̶ Set-of-interconnected-self-actualising-machines!
I intend this to be somewhat of an introduction, although I do realise that it would constitute a rather bizarre greeting in real life. This won't be a personal account, by that I mean I don't intend to post personal content (i.e. about my real world identity). This isn't really for anonymity, despite admittedly being quite a shy person, I think it's more to do with not wanting to attempt a serious explanation of my context, something which I doubt is achievable through this medium. For me underrepresentation is better than misrepresentation, although I understand if people find my presentation here dishonest or unaccountable.
I'll use this account partly for listening, a sampling spoon through which to experience the soup of conversation and thought. I'll also do some tooting, I like this word, I might have said contributing, tossing new, or maybe reused, ingredients into the soup, but that gives the impression, I think, of some final objective, an endpoint. Most likely, listening will be the larger of these two parts, and at least for the short term, both parts, the whole, will occupy very little of my time. Expect sporadicity and inconsistency!
I also wanted to say something about what I am interested in, this is difficult since if I just say a lot of words then what is there to relate my meaning, my intentions, to the meaning which you understand? "Language disguises thought" - Wittgenstein. Well after much deliberation and many sleepless nights I decided to... just say a lot of words, although do bear in mind that the following list is just that, merely a collection of words that I, at the time of writing, happened to perceive as having meanings that corresponded, perhaps imperfectly, to topics that I am interested in. Interested does not necessarily mean fully-endorse/believe/would-describe-myself-as/is-knowledgeable-about.

Another reason (among many) why I became disenchanted with #Cybernetics and had to “invent” #Kihbernetics.
Warren Sturgis McCulloch, the co-inventor of the first computational model of a #Neuron that was the precursor for #AI and #DeepNeuralNetworks, uses a racial slur to incorrectly suggest that Cybernetics is somehow the result of the “interbreeding” between the Natural and the Artificial in the preface he wrote for Gordon Pask’s book:
