Good link. Thanks Vladimir.
A mini-review:
1) A positive comment: that is a *huge*
Although I thought this was a good talk and I liked the fellow
presenting it to me it seems fairly clear that little or no progress
has been made in this area over the last decade or so. In the early
1990s I wrote somewhat similar simulations where agents had their own
neural networks whose
Yes, resulted behaviors are not impressive, I did similar thing with
essentially 1 hidden layer perceptron on 2D square grid in high school
and got something that looked not much simpler (weak creatures cycling
around gathering, fat carnivores in the center hunting them, few
superfat parasites

Yeah. I've only had time to watch the first 20 minutes of that talk
but my reaction so far is disappointment: it's just exactly the same
as it was a decade ago? Modern

I think that linguistic interaction with human beings is going to be what
lifts Second Life proto-AGI's beyond the glass ceiling...
Our first SL agents won't have language generation or language learning
capability, but I think that introducing it is really essential, esp. given
the limitations
Which raises the question of whether the same complexity glass ceiling
will be encountered when running AGI controlled agents within Second
Life. SL is probably more complex than polyworld, although that could
be debatable depending upon your definition of complexity. One factor

No worries!! just wanted to clarify...
To address your question more usefully: There is soo much evidence
that chemistry is subtly important for biology in ways that are poorly
understood.
In neuroscience for instance the chemistry of synaptic transmission btw
neurons is still weakly
