Butterfly Effect | Vibepedia

The butterfly effect is a concept in chaos theory that describes how small, seemingly insignificant changes can result in large, unpredictable differences in a system's behavior. This idea is closely associated with the work of mathematician and meteorologist Edward Norton Lorenz, who used the example of a butterfly flapping its wings to illustrate the concept. The butterfly effect has far-reaching implications in fields such as meteorology, physics, and philosophy, and has been influential in the development of chaos theory and complexity science.
