Continuous functions in Domain Theory reflect that computational processes have access only to finite information at each finite stage.

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

• Continuous dynamics inhabit real closed fields (complete, decidable); discrete arithmetic is incomplete and uncomputable.claim0.792
  Mathematical argument that continuous biological computation operates in a richer formal domain; suggests computational advantages for consciousness-relevant processing.
• Agents and their interactions are intrinsic to studying information flow in computation, not peripheral to classical information theory.claim0.775
  Central thesis: traditional static information theories fail to capture dynamic interaction necessary for understanding modern computing.
• "Computational processes are abstract beings that inhabit computers... A computational process is indeed much like a sorcerer's idea of a spirit. It cannot be seen or touched. It is not composed of matter at all."quote0.767
  Load-bearing quote from SICP framing computation as spirit-like; grounds the cyberanimism framework
• "Domain Theory is a static theory resting on dynamic intuitions."concept0.751
• Stress, care, and intelligence manifest in continuous loops; successfully overcoming a stress factor through intelligence necessarily introduces new problem spaces.claim0.746
  Explaining the autogenerative nature of SCI loops.
• We hypothesize that adopting computational functionalism as a working assumption allows productive investigation of which computational properties are necessary and sufficient for consciousness and whether current AI systems could implement them.hypothesis0.742
  The paper's core methodological bet: use computational functionalism as a working assumption even while remaining agnostic about its truth
• Every living process is, throughout its length and breadth, congruent with feeling and governed by feeling.claim0.738
  Essential feature of living process, making phenomenological experience the central criterion for evaluation.
• Cognitive capacities exist on a spectrum and tools from behavioral sciences can be productively applied to understand and control systems far beyond familiar animals with central nervous systems.claim0.738
  Core tenet of diverse intelligence; justifies the methodological borrowing across fields.
