| Why It Matters | To make GMI (general machine intelligence) systems, we must adopt new methodologies, i.e. methodologies that do not build on standard ways to build systems as done in traditional engineering and computer science. Looking at systems that employ different methods from putting everything in pipelines, hand-coding everything beforehand, using the slowest component to determine the update rate of the whole system, pre-compilation, etc., can help our imagination adopt new paradigms. | | | \\ Why It Matters | Creating GMI (general machine intelligence) systems likely requires new methodologies that do not build on standard ways to build software systems, as used in traditional engineering and computer science, which were all created for use by existing general intelligences (humans). These typically consist of pipelines, a-priori hand-coding, update rates that depend on slowest sub-process, pre-compilation, etc., \\ In seeking appropriate methodologies, to help our imagination adopt new paradigms it may help to look at the nature and behavior of systems that involve a different and more diverse set of principles. | |
| Regularity | When the result of a comparison between two sets of data are found to overlap it is called **//regularity//**. \\ The overlap can be computed in various ways; different comparison methods resulting in different //patterns//. \\ Regularity is hypothesized to be //caused// by //rules//. | | | \\ Regularity | When the result of a comparison between two sets of data are found to overlap it is called **//regularity//**. \\ The overlap can be computed in various ways; different comparison methods resulting in different //patterns//. \\ Regularity is hypothesized to be //caused// by //rules//. | |
| Patterns | Patterns arise in a system made of parts or components, where the whose components interact in multiple ways, following (hypothesized) rules. | | | Patterns | Patterns arise in a system made of parts or components, where the whose components interact in multiple ways, following (hypothesized) rules. | |
| What is Emergence? | In philosophy, systems theory, science, and art, emergence occurs when an entity is observed to have properties its parts do not have on their own, properties or behaviors that emerge only when the parts interact in a wider whole. \\ Source: [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emergence|Emergence on Wikipedia]] | | | What is Emergence? | In philosophy, systems theory, science, and art, emergence occurs when an entity is observed to have properties its parts do not have on their own, properties or behaviors that emerge only when the parts interact in a wider whole. \\ Source: [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emergence|Emergence on Wikipedia]] | |

| Group Clapping | Try this in class: Start clapping; aim for clapping at the same rate as everyone else in the room. Self-organization without centralized control. | | ====Belousov-Zhabotinsky Reaction==== |

| Why it's important | Great visual example of the kind of emergent patterns can be created through auto-catalysis (chemical in this case). One of the first (the first?) scientifically published example of emergence identified as such. | | | Why it's important | Great visual example of the kind of emergent patterns can be created through auto-catalysis (chemical in this case).
