Cybernated

/ˈsaɪbərˌneɪtɪd/ adjective

Definition

Controlled, regulated, or automated using cybernetic principles with self-correcting feedback systems.

Etymology

Past participle of cybernate; used as an adjective to describe systems that have been subjected to cybernetic control and automation.

Kelly Says

A cybernated system is almost alive—it watches itself, measures its own performance, and automatically corrects errors without anyone telling it to, which is why people got so nervous about automation in the 1960s!
