@Boris's link "Living organisms metabolize matter and energy to propagate their pattern (information), while cognitive systems “metabolize” patterns: learn and forget information, to increase their predictive power. "
Yes however perhaps a slight correction is that living organisms are creating and finding patterns in matter, cells are such and they clone and bind together. Memories do too in the same way. Both are just trying to take over the land of matter and the land of brains (belief viruses). The mind ideas are trying to survive, really they are, and in doing so they eventually help the host survive. So what you get in the end is a big pattern on Earth - Earth becomes a GPU fractal, a powerhorse, and highly predictable where everything is therefore and not a mess you can get hurt in, and we are immortal now and live long, and our theories in the brains are now a pattern too, living long and steady, that found pattern among all the ideas making a theory of everything (TOE). All that's happening is patterns form in space....notice there is squares and circles all around your house? Housed are lined up, event and similar building placed together. Life is rocks and long livers that last through time or space (a 'clone_pattern'). ------------------------------------------ Artificial General Intelligence List: AGI Permalink: https://agi.topicbox.com/groups/agi/T5b614d3e3bb8e0da-Mf7cd1fdd68eb20f0ef02089b Delivery options: https://agi.topicbox.com/groups/agi/subscription
