feedback loops

A feedback loop is a process where information from one part of a system is used to influence what happens in another part of the system. It's like a winding path with a loop in it that keeps going around in circles. To make it easier to understand, think of a video game controller. It has two feedback loops: one for the buttons you press and one for your movements. When you press a button, the controller sends information to the game, and the game responds by making something happen on the screen. As you move the controller around, the game responds by moving your character or making other changes. So the feedback loop keeps going around, from the controller to the game and back again.
