Neural Darwinism? I noticed in your "Chaotic Logic" book from 1994 that you
were a fan of Edelman, Ben.

I don't know if Edelman's mechanism could flip structures from sentence to
sentence, though. Could it?

Actually, you already know what mechanism I think evolution stumbled on for
grouping elements which share predictions, on the fly. I wanted to keep
some distance between my speculated mechanism and the general idea that
transformers might be generating a different grammar for each sentence. I'm
interested to hear what other mechanisms people might come up with to
replace back-prop, and do this on the fly..

But as you know, I do already have a candidate mechanism in mind.
