Re: Causality vs. Entailment

I would like to add that entailment is about ontology
while causality is about epistemology. These two are
often not differentiated. Either ontology is ignored
or treating ontology as epistemology.
Autopoiesis theory differentiates organization from
structure. The former determines the identity the
latter the behavior. We all have the same identity
that is human but we are structurally different. The
organization determines the range of behaviors and the
structure determines the actual behavior of particular
individule. Today's business changes are mostly
structural not orgnaizational. I don't believe that
there is even awareness on this. A change in
orgnaization or identity revolutionizes the
performance in differently levels of magnitute. See
the difference the speed between a turtle and a rabit.
They are all made of the same six atoms. But the
organization of the atoms determines the identity,
therefore the performance level.
