cosine ≥ 0.65 · no typed edgeEntities in the same semantic neighborhood but without a typed relation to this one — candidates for new edges or unrecognized duplicates.
- Discipline providing evidence for pre-neural origins of cognitive mechanisms; supports rethinking consciousness substrates.
- Darwinian process of variation and selection; parallels with learning are central to the paper's argument.
- Levin's model of how evolution repurposed ancient bioelectric machinery originally used for morphogenesis into neural control of behavior in 3D space.
- The theory that new levels of biological organization arise when independent replicators cooperate to form higher-level entities (Szathmáry, Maynard Smith).
- Theory explaining how new levels of biological organization and individuality emerge through transitions in collective intelligence and problem-solving rescaling.
- Change between ordered and disordered macroscopic phases; existence depends on topology
- ETI where HFHF is solved by reproductive plasticity and heterogeneous genetics; e.g., symbiosis leading to organelles
