If you use engineering terminology at least get your terms straight
1⃣ Oscillators *are* #circuits .
2⃣The cause of resonance is the similarity in the #structure and #state between resonating entities.
3⃣There is no #feeling (resonance) without #cognition of what to resonate with.
#HH_Pattee about the limits of #computability .
No matter how many times I re-read his work, a new gem always pops up.
This one is from:

There is a difference between 'causal #inference ' and 'causal #forensics '.
Just because you have a large #memory allowing you to replay exactly how things happened in the past, doesn't mean you have the proper 'computational #model ' for predicting how they turn out in the future.
Most of us would agree that the #genome does not specify the #blueprint of the structure or function of the organism, and the 'jury is still out' if it is the #recipe describing the process for its #production .
Or, is it the #map of #Waddington 's landscape?
Asking for a friend.😉
Excellent (standing form🥰) interview with Philip Ball. Lots of sound points on many issues.
In particular, I totally agree with his stance on 'AI creativity'. Unfortunately, he lost me on the 'Maxwell's demon'. Living agents don't 'collect', they actually 'create' #information .
A highly recommended reading from Yogi Jaeger 💙 @[email protected]:

A few quick comments:
1⃣ The same #system can abstract both living and non-living (abiotic) #machines ,
2⃣ The latter ones can also be #anticipatory ,
3⃣There are no 'goals to pursue' or 'obstacles' in #evolution .
Except that all #knowledge is 'tacit' (internal and privately created by the knower), so, strictly speaking, there can be no 'transfer', this post on LessWrong makes some interesting points about the role of #imitating YouTube videos in knowledge creation. lesswrong.com/posts/RXLbe6oZ…
Computational theories are unsustainable because a ' #discrete switching language' of numbers cannot properly explain a #continuous process of 'growth, motility, and metabolic #control .'
From #HH_Pattee 's 1976 paper on instabilities and control hierarchies:
