ANNOTATION:
A possible ethics of cybernetics
The work of Hans Eysenck and Ronald Grossarth-Maticek may provide a basis for continuing discussion about the ethics of the cybernetic world view. They believed that a model of self-regulation with a particular setting around which feedback occurred could be used to help explain human health and behavior. The setting or reference point they recommended was "pleasure and long term well-being." They believed that the fact that pleasure is often enhanced by altruistic acts was sufficient to counter arguments about this criterion being insufficiently deep.
