• What Processes Drive The Expansion Of Intelligence Onquestion0.863
• The evolutionary process contains an intelligence ratchet: as competency increases, selection struggles to see the structural genome, further driving selection for competency mechanisms.claim0.813
  Explains why planaria with messy genomes have robust morphologies.
• When intelligence enhancing processes occur, they involve an increase in the corresponding factor of care.hypothesis0.805
  Converse predictive relation—intelligence improvements increase care.
• Conceptual advances in the links between machine learning and evolution now provide quantitative formalisms with which to begin to develop testable models of collective intelligence across scales.claim0.792
  Asserts that the time is ripe for formal models.
• Human cognition evolved to detect agency in medium-sized objects at medium speeds in 3D space, limiting recognition of intelligence in unfamiliar substrates.claim0.783
• Scaling intelligence via expansion of cognitive boundaries through inclusion of others' stress-reduction in one's own homeostatic loops.claim0.783
  Central thesis: expanding an agent's sensors and goals outward to include others' states creates bidirectional feedback loop that scales intelligence and increases compassion.
• The evolving system of genetic material itself causes evolution to follow certain pathways not only because of selective pressure from outside but by virtue of its own internal dynamical ordering tendencies.hypothesis0.780
  Alexander's endorsement of a hypothesis that supplements Darwinian theory with internal geometric ordering
• Multi-scale competency increases the apparent IQ of the evolutionary process, enabling better generalization.hypothesis0.779
  Hypothesis linking competency to evolutionary learning efficiency.
