Type: article
Abstract: How can we address the rapid advancement and widespread adoption of Artificial Intelligence (AI) across various sectors of society? This paper aims to provide insights through a cybernetic-systemic approach, which is well-suited to tackle the complexities of this new landscape. We will utilize the framework of Organizational Cybernetics (OC) and the Viable System Model (VSM), along with Perez Rios’s Taxonomy of Organizational Pathologies (TOP). By examining the key risks and potential challenges posed by AI through the lens of OC, this paper seeks to contribute to the development of more effective strategies for responsible innovation and governance in AI.
