Autonomous Systems : a conglomeration of looped systems

Automation is the key to grow forward. Without automation, life wouldn’t have evolved to its current state, simply because manual conscious control of each of the components simply overwhelms the brain or the mind or consci.

When developing a new component for automation, the task to be automated follows a flow in the universe, which is predictable, and controllable if desired. Universe is autonomous, and saying something is autonomous is as if universe is driving it, it it were to be an agent. And adding a new autonomous component in the society or within us or surrounding us requires that it follows that predictable and or controllable flow (that needs next to little control and attention of the being) that it can run autonomously without driving by conscious entity.

We know that things which surround us only change its form through forces of the universe, which can either be manifested by being or by the universe.
An autonomous system is a closed loop system that forever flows in this universe, while universe acting on it with its own set of forces, and that loop coexists with the universe. This loop is merely a closed loop system that performs the task (note: the definition of loop may be skewed in the understanding if you didn’t understood it yet, maybe because even I can’t recall why I call it a looped system in the first place, I look it up in the post I linked, its because these are circuits of systems for e.g. breathing , heart beating, digestion and peristaltic movement, etc. and also that the analogy that when a loop forms, its stable, it can retrace without falling itself into undecided chaos, hence a loop a stable entity or existence).

As defined in linked post, an set of autonomous system A which can compose of independent autonomous system or dependent interlinked autonomous system, we can add an independent autonomous system Ai so {A U Ai} is autonomous. If we add Ai, which affects system A or components of A in interlinked fashion, then the resulting system may or may not be stable, and depending on if Ai keeps the stability or breaks it. ( this can be for e.g. a side-effect of say a medicine that affects the natural cycle, or simply can be seen as two stable independent substances, when mixed react to form new stuff, i.e. both of them change, or one may change and other stay constant as if it were a catalyst…).

But practically, the point is, if I want an autonomous laundry, it must start with for example, me putting all the dirty laundry in a bucket, which is autonomously taken by the machine, washed, dried, and clothes fold or however, put back in the clean basket or put in the wardrobe for me to pick up next, this is the closed cycle for the clothes circulating, as well as the routine (cycle) task of the machine collecting dirty clothes, cleaning them, and finally putting them in clean basket, back to collecting more dirty clothes and so on, on repeat. Meanwhile, the clean water enters and dirty water comes out and detergent is consumed. And so the overall point is I never have to think about cleaning clothes, as if the idea would be non-existent to me (if we were unknown about it or to ignore it largely), which is easier to understand for e.g. a fruit from a tree, after eating , and so on, returns to soil, ready for the next fruit which grows from the same soil, all governed by the energy, say from star powered by fusion, … and so on for other things. And instead of laundry, it can be something else.

The key is, we keep on adding the systems which consume our uninteresting time, only so that our consciousness could evolve, and only by doing tasks repeatedly we realize which tasks are boring and need to be automated, and only by hand-trial we get to know what is best to automate.

And sometimes I wonder if the collective consciousness is driving forward is something that results from the current state of the universe, then we can just say one felt that thing happening because it was tuned to it, or simply consciousness or feeling is the top most thing residing on existing universe, and is at the edge of future and past, culminating in its current reality and experience.
