FRAGMENT FROM NATURE continues from last weekend and ends this weekend on the theme of complex life cycles. Chance experimentation has created an enormous diversity of lifestyles in nature some of which have been advantageous, others have been a disaster, leading down the path to extinction. But in true form, nature works by creating the maximum number of options. And probably none are more glorious to behold than those of parasites and tiny marine creatures. View in LinkedIn

"READ THE WEB" is a research project that attempts to create a computer system that learns over time to read the web. So far, NELL has accumulated over 50 million candidate beliefs by reading the web, and it is considering these at different levels of confidence. NELL has high confidence in 2,708,739 of these beliefs — these are displayed on this website. It is not perfect, but NELL is learning." http://rtw.ml.cmu.edu/rtw/ View in LinkedIn

WILL EMERGE. "But I do think that over time as complex systems proliferate in a world with gobs and gobs of computing power, that specific systems will emerge, in a big data sort of way. I think at some point someone will recognize that some of these existing systems could be used to create an AGI." https://lnkd.in/dNu67JP View in LinkedIn

SELF-WRITING BIO-CODE. "The genome has traditionally been treated as a Read-Only Memory (ROM) subject to change by copying errors and accidents. In this review, I propose that we need to change that perspective and understand the genome as an intricately formatted Read–Write (RW) data storage system constantly subject to cellular modifications and inscriptions." https://lnkd.in/eFS9cuj View in LinkedIn

SELF-WRITING CODE. "The core point is that computers can write software themselves, and that this technology is under active research. Over time, we've both improved the systems for actually synthesizing code and found new uses for existing ones. Most of the advances are still somewhat rudimentary, and unlikely to see real use any time soon, but some specific technologies like Flash-Fill have already found their ways into consumer products." https://lnkd.in/d8uRh9a View in LinkedIn
