functional enough

functional enough is the significant quality / state of a system of having the minimum set of qualitys necessary to make a given system functional for its intent or purpose.

functional enough requires an ongoing evaluation of the system state, the functional enough function.

intelligence is the product of a system of fine-tuned functional enough functions in itself and its sub-system.

functional enough is a fundamental construct to relate with efficiency with reality, as it allow using only the necessary amount of energy for the given intent or purpose.

A functional enough function can only maximize a functional enough state if the system has a deep understanding of its intent or purpose as well as deep awareness of its own state, as those two things would define when is enough. awareness of its own state implies awareness of the amount of certainty that the system needs.

In humans, the awareness of the state translate in to awareness of its perception (emotions and sensations), and the intent translates into awareness of its own needs.

In modern society, where humans experience a high degree of conditioning of the discrete spaces, they become disconnected of their emotions and needs (the functional enough function is disrupted).

The disconnect makes them relate to its intent in a very discrete and absolute terms, often defined as a I should... narrative never reaching a satisfactory optimal due to no clear understanding of the deeper intent and ignoring or not being aware of its internal emotional state.

functional enough is extensible to any abstract quality.

Most abstract qualitys are intrinsically functional enough (significant qualitys), but we do not acknowledge that. There is a benefit in making the functional enough quality explicit, as it brings awareness to it and prevents relating them in absolute terms.

examples: objective enough and understood enough.
