Editing Norbert Wiener (section)

=== Later Years and Cognitive Insularity ===
Wiener’s final years were spent in philosophical contemplation, writing feverishly about '''machine morality''', '''cyborg identity''', and '''entropy in culture'''. He traveled widely, but remained emotionally and behaviorally unchanged—detached, verbal, distracted, principled.

When diagnosed with diabetes, he treated it not as a medical issue but as a '''problem in feedback regulation'''. This was typical of his worldview: everything was a system, and systems could be corrected—not consoled.
