Cybernetics is the cross-disciplinary study of using [[systems]] of control for desired ends.
The term โcyberneticsโ comes from the Greek word โฮบฯ ฮฒฮตฯฮฝฮฎฯฮทฯโ (kubernetes).
Cybernetics developed out of operational research done by the British and American governments during the [[Second World War]]. The term was coined by [[Norbert Weiner]].
Around the time that computing became more mainstream, cybernetics became a distinct field from [[artificial intelligence]], where previously it was the same field (see: [[split between cybernetics and artificial intelligence]]).
