Computational Irreducibility

Wolfram's principle: no shortcut to predict emergent properties without full simulation.

Neighborhood — ranked by edge-count

cosine ≥ 0.65 · no typed edge

Entities in the same semantic neighborhood but without a typed relation to this one — candidates for new edges or unrecognized duplicates.

  • Hypothesis that some class of computations suffices for consciousness; central assumption for AI consciousness route.
  • Crutchfield's framework inferring minimal causal models from stochastic processes; causal states and transition matrices.
  • Wolfram's principle that systems above a low threshold of complexity are computationally equivalent, supporting substrate independence of consciousness
  • Computationalismframework0.753
    Position that all phenomena can be fully captured as discrete and finite state transitions; grounded in mathematical constructivism
  • Processing where the same operation is applied repeatedly via weight sharing, as in RNNs; contrasts with implementational recurrence.
  • Application of active inference to fMRI data; cited as prior use of the framework
  • The dominant methodological approach across all discovered papers; contrasts with anthropological/historical comparison methods.
