Has emergent behavior ever been predicted prior to it being observed in other theoretical fields?

- tinix 1y agoemergent behavior is common in all large systems. it doesn't seem that surprising to me.
- xboxnolifes 1y agoThat is not the question.
- tinix 1y agoMaybe I can make this more clear for you: Yes, the answer is yes. lol see: physics, biology, economics, sociology more granularly: cellular automata, phase transitions, trophic cascades, scale-free networks, swarm intelligence, the list goes on... all of this was modeled theoretically before it was observed.
- pixl97 1y agoI believe it's been predicted in traffic planning and highway design and tested in via simulation and in field experiments. Use of self driving cars to modify traffic behaviors and decrease traffic jams is a field of study these days.
