I'm a 3D artist that's gotten into AI image generation in the past couple years. In my exploration to better understand how these tools work, I found myself diving into cognitive science, epigenetics, and computational science. In my examination, I feel like all information systems require 2 things, a threshold process and a replication process. These serve fundamental functions: 1) the ability to filter noise 2) the ability to survive within a chaotic system. The result of a system that embodies these 2 functions leads to a self organizing replicating system, a negative entropy ratchet, i.e. life. This series really resonates with everything I've been learning and I look forward to the rest of the episodes. Thank you so much for sharing :)
Very interesting to hear about the history of Mr Mandlebrot.. and noise in systems and communication etc.. always very interesting subjects.. Thankyou Best wishes from Rolland at Castle Hassall on the edge of The Atlantic
Once you mentioned Mandelbrot, I knew you’d bring up fractals. Nice episodes. Thank you. We’ll be looking forward to whatever topics you decide to keep sharing with us.
Fun video. Questions that keep coming from various angles at various intervals. Who makes the rules? How can you change/affect the rules? (Rules by my definition being mutable and Laws being the immutable) Gonna think about what is meant by “noise”. All other “outside” influences that does in fact influence because it is part of the whole system, but not immutable in the way a law would be?? Information being a represented choice? I mean what is the point of information other than to ultimately provide the thinker with options of thought/bits/data? (From which to ponder,define,select) 🤷🏽♂️ in my own world the system is paradoxical. Thanks for sharing. Fruit for thought always the sweetest.
