The specific hardware and software manifestations built explicitly on the principles of dynamic-complex systems theory. These are technologies designed to be complex and adaptive, not just to manage complexity. Examples include artificial immune systems for cybersecurity that evolve new defenses, swarm robotics for construction, predictive market simulators that model billions of agents, or personal AI assistants that dynamically reconfigure their own code based on your behavior. They're unpredictable by design, which is both their power and their peril.
*Example: "The new traffic grid is a dynamic-complex systems technology. It doesn't have a schedule; it's a live simulation of every vehicle, pedestrian, and weather pattern, constantly generating and testing flow patterns. It once created a city-wide rolling green wave for a fire truck, but also once diverted all commuters onto a single street for an hour 'to see what would happen.'"
