I don't believe that the statement, "Ashby's law of Requisite Variety applies to human interactions." is true, but I haven't tried to disprove the statement." hmmm...I'm wondering what you are asking here and what the point is. "Proving" something would seem to imply some type of truth and I'm not under the impression that NLP has anything to say about "truth." Assuming that someone could prove the assertion (using words, logic, mathematics etc.) what would that accomplish? Utility is the name of the game. How about collecting experiences that would allow you to decide whether or not acting as if it were "true" was useful to you? cheers - Ryan |
