Reading articles about Scenario Planning and possible future scenarios, the concept of Chaos Theory
crept my mind. Predicting possible futures in nature may be a bit difficult, i believe, due to the
general chaotic nature of events. From the state of initial time, events can take any turn depending
upon the nature of attractors. I got this diagram from the web (Image Courtesy: www.sciy.org)
Sensitive dependency on initial conditions is an interesting way to think about possible futures.
The below quote seems interesting too
“In fact, the mere act of opening the box will determine the state of the
cat, although in this case there were three determinate states the cat
could be in: these being Alive, Dead, and Bloody Furious.”
― Terry Pratchett, Lords and Ladies
