20 Mar meta-knowledge
Knowledge about knowledge. Psychology and cybernetics are fundamentally meta-knowledge sciences because one must know about thinking and knowing before attempting to solve knowing and thinking problems. Clinical psychologists are often called to dig deep into mental circuitry (their own and others’) to help solve problems. Intelligent machine designers have to do the same thing.
