Ep. 28 - The power of feedback loops. (feat. Chad Chambers and Josh Rashad Bruce)

A feedback loop is an output of a system is "fed back" into the system as input, allowing the system to self-regulate or self-correct. Feedback loops can be either positive or negative, depending on whether the feedback amplifies or dampens the original behavior. A positive feedback loop amplifies the original behavior, leading to a self-reinforcing cycle that can either be beneficial or harmful, depending on the context. A negative feedback loop, on the other hand, dampens the original behavior, leading to a self-regulating cycle that can help maintain stability or equilibrium in a system. Feedback loops are found in many systems, including biological, ecological, economic, and social systems. They can also be used in technology and engineering to create self-regulating systems, such as thermostats, which adjust heating or cooling based on feedback from temperature sensors.
