Jacobin article about cybernetics was sort of disappointing, they totally missed the point and condemned the entire discipline because it was funded by the US military back in the day. Also putting it in the context of a whole issue about AI doesn't make sense because Project Cybersyn didn't involved anything like AI, it was just about facilitating communication between people. IDK I almost want to write a longer thing about this but I don't want to actually write a response to Jacobin lol
