This document appears to be a page (numbered 23) from an essay or book manuscript discussing the legacy of cyberneticist Norbert Wiener. The text explores Wiener's potential reactions to modern technologies like the Internet, deep learning, and renewable energy, while contrasting them with his historical fears of nuclear annihilation and authoritarianism. The document bears a 'HOUSE_OVERSIGHT' Bates stamp, indicating it was part of a document production for a congressional investigation, likely related to Jeffrey Epstein's connections to the scientific community or the Edge Foundation.
