THOUGHTS AND PERSPECTIVES ON COMPLEXITY 2
Thoughts and Perspectives on Complexity
I could not agree more to the statement that "complexity grows in ways, each of which
seems reasonable at the time" (Segal, 2010). I agree that complexity depends on a lot of things
and is of different forms. We have several types of complexities: time-independent real, time-
independent imaginary, time-dependent combinatorial, and time-dependent periodic complexity.
This warranted Mr. Tainter to claim that complexity creeps up on you- suggesting it can help me
real or imaginary and unexpected (Segal, 2010). It is due to complexity's cumulative costs that
the society is insolvent. Complexity is a term that describes fanciness in progression. That is why
we assume complicated products emanate from sharp, impressive minds, and the fanciness. As
the word itself is, complexity though vital is challenging to explain system concepts and thus, a
system's complexity lies in the beholder's eyes.
It is a point of concern that human beings have made the world too complicated for our
humble peoples' brains, as LaFrance (2016). This is a real nightmare case that has declared war
on humanity and messy systems so complicated that almost any glitch you think about is bound
to happen. We often maintain a blind eye towards complexity until something goes wrong then
we are like, it was within our control. The cultural tendencies of assuming that someone out there
understands the complexity of machine systems- so that you do not have to, is becoming very
overwhelming. How can we have a situation where no one understands these things? Why, and
yet we created them at first? It is a pity that hundreds of thousands of air travelers were late due
to a main, system-wide network outage at Delta (LaFrance, 2016). This problem became
progressively common in the world due to interconnections and aging computer systems.
Arbesman's approach to issue suggests advocacy for magic. We need to reorient the cultural
attitudes towards technology away from tangle and back to receiving enlightenment.
