"Bioelectricity is only interesting because it happens to be the cognitive glue that enables the scaling of intelligence." Michael Levin notes the fascinating way bioelectrical networks allow single cells to achieve complex goals like building limbs or faces, but argues his

Chemputation will lead to an exponential growth of the number of molecules synthetically accessible. It transcends the limits of manual labor by using a Turing-like ontology for error correction to ensure we can go deeper into chemical space. arxiv.org/abs/2408.09171

Before we learn to speak, we’re wired to connect. So much of our existence is about communication. We are social. And lately, it feels like we’re forgetting we need each other.

New preprint: arxiv.org/abs/2508.11423 "Open Questions about Time and Self-reference in Living Systems" by Samson Abramsky, Wolfgang Banzhaf, Leo S. D. Caves, Michael Levin, Penousal Machado, Charles Ofria, Susan Stepney, Roger White

Michael Levin Congratulations on this important work. Self-reference in natural time seems central to living systems — and may now be instantiated in artificial architectures. Recursive, self-modifying intelligences provide a way to test these principles directly.

holy shit they found a power series solution to ALL polynomial equations!! (bypassing Galois which says you can’t solve them in radicals)

AI is more than just models and software. In fact, when we merge AI with physical devices, we don't just create smarter software— we create tools that can proactively understand and interact with the world around us. That was the goal of this year's #MadeByGoogle event. Here

Lucky, lucky ✨ If you’ve been waiting to try #Veo3 tomorrow is your lucky day. Stay tuned…
