"There exists a considerable misunderstanding about cybernetics' scientific aspirations. In reality, cybernetics was not a science but a school of engineering in drag."

Steam didn’t trigger the Industrial Revolution. The growing complexity of labour demanded steam.

Just like today, it's not AI that's changing work—it's work that's calling AI into being.
