    studies
    Co-author; neuroscientist studying embodied and bioengineered tissues to model neural diseases and minimal cognitive systems.

Concepts (9)

concept
  • Collective Intelligence
    associated_withextends
    Recognition that selves are composite systems of competent parts; all intelligences are higher-level selves made of cells or components.
  • Cognitive Light Cone
    uses
    Concept defining self by the spatiotemporal scale and nature of goals a system can pursue; limits of concern demarcate identity.
  • AI: a Bridge toward Diverse Intelligence and Humanity's Future
    introduces
    The source paper under extraction — a philosophical essay by Michael Levin arguing that AI debates neglect deeper questions about diverse intelligence, developmental biology, and humanity's future
  • World Models
    associated_with
    Theme issue context: relates to internal models of environment, central to consciousness and cognition across substrates.
  • Synthbiosis
    extends
    Levin's proposed framework for mutually beneficial relationships between radically different intelligences.
  • Unconventional embodiments
    associated_with
    Core concept: cells, tissues, life-technology chimeras, and synthetic systems where consciousness and cognition may occur outside brains.
  • Topological Constraints on Self-Organisation

  • Distributed Cognition in AI
    associated_with
  • Agent
    uses
    Any autonomous system including living and non-living forms that embodies a perception-action cycle and tries to navigate and persist in an environment

Frameworks (5)

framework
  • Active Inference
    associated_with
    Foundational framework by Karl Friston; the paper extends it to three hierarchical levels for modeling meta-awareness.
  • Tame Technological Approach To Mind Everywhere
    implements
    A conceptual framework for understanding cognition and intelligence across diverse substrates—including evolved biological systems, artificial systems, and bioengineered systems—using empirically-grounded, gradualist approaches. TTAME enables comparative analysis of mind-like phenomena regardless of the physical or biological substrate in which it emerges, facilitating cross-disciplinary study of unconventional intelligences.
  • Platonic Space / Ingressing Patterns Framework
    extends
    The paper's central proposed framework: a structured, non-physical, causally efficacious latent space of patterns ranging from static mathematical truths to full kinds of minds, which 'ingress' into physical embodiments.
  • Biogenic Approach To Cognition
    supports
  • William James Definition Of Intelligence
    implements
    Intelligence as degree of ability to reach the same goal by different means (problem-solving in changing/novel circumstances); extended here to collectives.

  • Causally Emergent Alignment Hypothesis
    extends
    The hypothesis that successful RL agents will display causal emergence that is predictive of final reward early in training and whose representational dynamics align with reward improvement.
