Can we meaningfully talk about causality in dynamical systems?
Some people are puzzled when it comes to dynamical systems and the idea of causation.
Dynamical systems well-known in physics, social sciences, and biology are often thought of as a special family of systems, where it might be difficult to meaningfully talk about causal direction.
Naftali Weinberger devoted his career to examining the relationships between system dynamics, causality and the phenomena known broadly as "complexity".
We explore what does "intervention" mean in a dynamical system and we deconstruct common intuitions about causality and system's equilibrium.
We discuss the importance of time scales when defining a causal system, analyze what could have inspired Bertrand Russell to say that causality is a "relic of a bygone age" and ponder the phenomenon of emergence.
Finally, Naftali shares his advice for those of us just starting exploring the uncharted territory of causal inference and discovery.
