<div class="yiv9193259041moz-cite-prefix">Thanks, Jason. Maybe my text below is
not exactly what you demand, but I prepared it around 10 years ago
and was published in an extended way later on. I have made very
few changes afterwards, but I hope to develop it more properly
(just those "20 pages" you mention) one of these years...</div>

whole book of Informatics has 100 pages, what content would
be the most important 20 pages (per 20:80 Law)? I'm asking
this question to all of you since the Club of Remy is
organizing a discussion to integrate
Systemics-Cyberentics-Informatics sister fields into a
unified trinity curriculum for the younger generation. Here
is the original Call for Discussants. I wish some of you
would be kind enough to provide your insights to answer the
two questions raised in this call. You are also more than
welcome to consider attending these discussions in our Zoom
meetings later. Best regards - Jason</div>

<div style="font-size:large;" class="yiv9193259041gmail_default"><b style="font-size:small;">Title: It is time to wrap up
cybernetics – and distill 20% of it for a new curriculum </b>
<div style="font-size:small;"><b>Author: Jason Hu</b></div>
<div style="font-size:small;"><b>Outline:</b></div>
<div style="font-size:small;">
<p>Two great cyberneticians in our Club of Remy have
Rest-In-Peace: Our beloved Professor Klaus Krippendorff
and Professor Loet Leydesdorff. Our YouTube channel now
has their “Playlist” of their contributions to our
club. A number of noted cyberneticians have reduced
participation in the recent two years; the reasons might
be aging, decline of health, and/or exhaustion of new
insights from cybernetics per se. One of the used-to-be
large cybernetics discussion forums, CYBCOM, initialized
by me and Stuart Umpleby as a Listserv on an IBM
mainframe more than 30 years ago, now has only one
active user posting on it (not me).</p>
<p>Meanwhile, huge tides in R&D and applications,
initiated in 1943 by the McCulloch-Pitts, are currently
changing our world in a profound way. Some of my
colleagues might not like it, since these new waves
discarded the term “cybernetics” but use the word “AI,”
even though they are deeply related, if not identical.</p>
<p>After studying (and working/practicing) in the field
named “cybernetics” since 1979, through many
mentors/advisors in those 47 years, I think it is time
now that we wrap up what we call “cybernetics” and start
a new field of human knowledge, SCI.” In a narrow
definition, SCI stands for
Systemics-Cybernetics-Informatics trinity. In a broader
definition, it should also include and integrate
Catastrophe Theory, Dissipative Theory, Synergetics,
Chaos Theory, Complexity Science, and Evolution Theory
(alas, a total of 9 names). All these names mentioned
here have inner connections, but their
ideas/models/insights are spread in many different books
and papers that are severely siloed and confusing to
young learners.</p>
<p>The Oxford Project, which started last September at the
WOSC conference, is an effort to develop a “standard
model” of SCI for a new generation of learners, with the
assistance of currently available AI tools. This Call of
Discussants to all members of CoR asking if you are with
me to go forward this transition from “only cybernetics”
to “SCI,” Yes or No? </p>
<p>If yes, here are two questions to be discussed in this
session: 1-What are the 20% most important knowledge
pieces (per 20:80 law) from “cybernetics” that we need
to present in the SCI curriculum? 2- What will be our
feasible approach to use current AI tools to make this
new SCI curriculum/online course?</p>
<p>I shall post question #1 to “Systemics” colleagues
(ISSS) and “Informatics” colleagues (FIS) to invite them
into this Lego game (of redefining a new field of
knowledge SCI in the format of an entry-level
curriculum). ChatGPT, Gemini, Grok, and Perplexity will
be invited too.</p>
<p>If you have some ideas about these two questions,
please sign up for a good discussion.</p>
