AUTONOMOUS THINKING. "Emergence is the phenomenon wherein a system is designed according to certain principles, but interesting properties arise that are not included in the goals of the designer." https://lnkd.in/dmJdbxk http://consc.net/notes/emergence.html View in LinkedIn

NON-OBVIOUS. "Emergent high-level properties are interesting, non-obvious consequences of low-level properties." https://lnkd.in/dmJdbxk http://consc.net/notes/emergence.html View in LinkedIn

ELEGANT DEFINITION. "Emergence is the phenomenon wherein complex, interesting high-level function is produced as a result of combining simple low-level mechanisms in simple ways." https://lnkd.in/dmJdbxk http://consc.net/notes/emergence.html View in LinkedIn

"EMERGENCE can be defined as the formation of order from disorder based on self-organisation." https://lnkd.in/duyAimW View in LinkedIn

OCCLUDED VIEW. "Emergence is a process whereby larger entities, patterns, and regularities arise through interactions among smaller or simpler entities that themselves do not exhibit such properties." https://lnkd.in/dc4VwZz https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emergence View in LinkedIn

EMERGENCE may be the fly in the ointment that results in totally unexpected interactions between informational computer codes, giving us the inability to predict, nor control outcomes. The dramatic increase in computer code complexity in the short time it has been on the planet shows no sign of abating. Complex autonomous agents are the engine of emergent phenomena.

"NEW GENES provide important genetic novelties responsible for biological diversity in organisms, and are often the genetic basis for lineage- or species-specific components in important biological processes and structures." https://lnkd.in/dsVek5A View in LinkedIn

FOLDS AND DISTANT FAMILIES. "By analyzing protein sequences we were able to identify EFs shared by seemingly unrelated protein superfamilies and folds and to unravel evolutionary relations between them. Binding and metabolic processing of the metal- and nucleotide-containing cofactors and ligands are among the most abundant ancient EFs that became indispensable in many natural enzymes." (EFs = elementary functions). https://lnkd.in/dwbv2VX View in LinkedIn

EMERGENCE OF NEW GENES. "The emerging picture across different species is that de novo genes emerge at high rates." https://lnkd.in/d4n2asc View in LinkedIn

MANY FROM THE FEW. "The diversity of contemporary enzymes can be described via combinations of a limited number of elementary chemical reactions, many of which are performed by the descendants of primitive prebiotic peptides/proteins." A very familiar theme. https://lnkd.in/dwbv2VX View in LinkedIn
