I've seen many people on this site talk about how if Andropov lived longer he could have prevented the collapse of the USSR or at least increased its odds of survival. I'm curious as to what his reforms were that people here mention.

my exact question, thank you.
like what are talking about here, what do we mean by cybernetics?
I'm imagining that it involves maintaining much more of the central planning that USSR had before the market reforms, but using computers to do the calculations. Soviets had been determining production quotas, prices, wages etc with a bunch of smart people, pencils and paper.
