Polycomputation: life as a diverse set of embodied perspectives—nested agents who interpret each other's and their own past messages

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

• Polycomputationconcept0.785
  Biological architecture where multiple competing/cooperating multi-scale agents develop interpretations of molecular and biophysical states rather than committing to single interpretation.
• What Is The Role Of Perception And Polycomputationquestion0.781
• A realization of our own multiscale, nested architecture naturally leads to the conclusion that care needs to be extended to all sentient beings.claim0.773
  Extends ethical concern based on the collective nature of selves.
• H1: Individuality requires a dynamical process (development), mediating the plastic expression of components in the context of one another, with the specific form of computing a collective character that is a non-linearly separable function of (embryonic) particle characters, with the effect of coordinating reproduction based on this collective character.hypothesis0.758
  Main hypothesis about the architecture of individuality
• Computation seeping into all aspects of human life through black box apparatus acquires autonomous existence, manipulating behavior in favor of arbitrary games detached from concrete world.claim0.754
  Flusser's critical diagnosis of technological domination; frames cybernetic diagrams as potential strategy for subversion and freedom.
• The Multiple Realizability of Sentience in Living Systems and Beyond (Rouleau & Levin, eNeuro 2023)concept0.751
  Paper arguing sentience can be realized in many substrates, directly relevant to the diverse intelligence argument
• Multiscale systems like those prevalent in biology are capable of organizing into complex patterns, whereas rudimentary language models are challenged by long sequences of outputs.claim0.751
  Conclusion about why biology organizes complexity well and flat LLMs do not
• Each human is a collective intelligence; the parenthetical 'of neurons' can be dropped as a conceptual commitment.claim0.751
