Broader role for dopamine beyond reward signalling, influencing top-down/bottom-up balance.

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.

Certainty in designconcept0.788
The principle that one should only take a design step when one feels certain about it, not by guesswork.
probabilityconcept0.759
Measure of expected sensory input, core to linking value and surprise.
Practicalityconcept0.757
The directness of motivation by practical concerns, characteristic of living processes in the examples.
Conditional Independenceconcept0.751
Assumption required by IIT/PyPhi; evaluated alongside Markov property for each candidate time series.
Precision is the unified mechanism for attention and meta-awareness across hierarchical levels.claim0.749
Core theoretical claim: attention = precision over sensory evidence; meta-awareness = precision over attentional states; meditation = precision modulation.
ambiguityconcept0.748
Multiple possible meanings for words like Alice, disambiguated by context; harder when grammar and meaning intertwine
Competenceconcept0.745
The innate problem-solving capacity of biological subunits at various scales.
Moving with certainty means taking small steps, deciding only what you know, and rejecting guesses or large-scale trial-and-error.claim0.740
Core principle of stepwise decision-making.
