Non-aggregative fitness interactions

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

• For collectives to be meaningful evolutionary units, fitness interactions must be non-linearly separable, not merely non-aggregative.claim0.788
  Strengthens distinction between monotonic non-linear interactions (explanatorily redundant) and non-decomposable interactions (causally significant).
• Developmental interactions required for evolutionary individuality must be able to coordinate solutions to non-decomposable functions (division of labour games)claim0.729
  Developmental process is identified as computing non-linearly separable collective phenotypes
• For a new level of individuality to have causal role as evolutionary unit, heritable fitness differences must be non-aggregative (not decomposable into lower-level differences).claim0.727
  Core claim: monotonic non-linearities are insufficient; evolutionary outcomes must change depending on context.
• Non-decomposability (non-linearly separable function) is a refinement of non-aggregative interactions, necessary for collective to be non-redundantclaim0.718
  Sharpens previous concepts of emergence in ETIs
• adversarial interactionconcept0.715
  Competitive multi-agent setting with conflicting incentives and direct opposition via bidding and bluffing.
• Interaction over Timeconcept0.708
  A sequence of context-response pairs where each context includes the preceding sequence, formalising LM dialogue dynamics.
• Pairwise Interaction Taxonomyframework0.706
  Classification scheme for pairwise persona vector composition outcomes: constructive, dominant, or destructive
• When interactions constitute non-linearly separable functions, it creates a ‘we’; what we are doing becomes a relevant variable.claim0.706
  Explains how non-separability shifts identity from parts to collective.
