Yeah. Memory. I think selection produces intelligence.

wait you're almost implying that selection is intelligence no yeah kind of i would go that i would go out on a limb and say that but i think it's a little bit more human beings have the ability to abstract and they can break beyond selection and this is what like darwinian selection because the human being doesn't have to basically do trial and error like they can think about they say oh that's a bad idea won't do that and then technologies and so on

And assembly theory will measure that as well, right? Because it's all a lineage.

Yeah, there seems to be a disconnect between the computational approach. So a Kolmogorov measure requires a Turing machine, requires a computer. And that's one thing. And the other thing is assembly theory is supposed to trace the process by which life evolution emerged. There's a main thing there. There are lots of other layers.

So Kolmogorov complexity, you can approximate Kolmogorov complexity, but it's not really telling you very much about... the actual... It's really telling you about your data set, compression of your data set. And so that doesn't really help you identify the turtle, in this case, is the computer. And so what assembly theory does is... I'm going to say...

Trigger warning for anyone listening who loves complexity theory. I think that we're going to show that AIT is a very important subset of assembly theory because here's what happens. I think that assembly theory allows us to understand when were selections occurring. Selection produces factories and things.

Factories in the end produce computers and then algorithmic information theory comes out of that. The frustration I've had with looking at life through this kind of information theory is it doesn't take into account causation. So the main difference between assembly theory and all these complexity measures is there's no causal chain. Yeah.
