Wasn’t cybernetics a borderline pseudoscience?

I mean read Stanley Milgram’s “Obedience to Authority” (with the actors who pretended to be shocked).

It was fascinating until he got to the theoretical implications. All cybernetic gobbledegook.

I prefer thinking of the “helmsman” of Ancient Greece when I hear Cyber/Kuber.
