ONE MILLION TITLES. "Parker’s company, ICON Group International, has auto-written more than a million titles. Most of them are nonfiction books on specific niche topics, but the software can also write poetry." http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/happening-robots-may-creative-artists-future/ View in LinkedIn

BOT BOOK AUTHORS. "Economist Phil Parker, for example, doesn’t write most of his books. He instead uses complex algorithms that can author an entire book, cover to cover, in just a few minutes. The algorithms essentially mimic the thought process behind formulaic writing, making it very easy and efficient to crank out new books all the time." http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/happening-robots-may-creative-artists-future/ View in LinkedIn

FRAGMENT FROM NATURE continues from last weekend and concludes this weekend on the theme of how complexity arose, and the implications for cooperation. Evolution is an ongoing reality, and while we look at trends in plants and animals, it is tempting to speculate about where the next big step is for humanity, if we do not succeed in making our own extinction, and that of the planet at the same time.

SWARM BENEFITS. "The potential benefits of such approach are several: robustness: the failure of individual elements does not degrade significantly the performance of the entire system;" "simplicity: the individual behavior is simple but still it allows to reduce the complexity of individuals; " "scalability: the control mechanisms used do not depend on the agents number within a swarm." https://lnkd.in/dTg7N-6 View in LinkedIn

NOT PERFECT. "How does an enzyme evolve from a given ancestral function to novel functions through descent with modification? Following scrutiny of multitude enzyme behaviors, it has been increasingly recognized that enzymes are not as ‘perfected’ as we assumed, but rather contain varying levels of catalytic promiscuity." https://lnkd.in/d3RnrBP View in LinkedIn

SWARM SOCIETY. "The emergence of such a complex behavior extends beyond the swarms. Complex social structures are similar in bigger animals as well as other types of insects. Some examples are colonies of ants and termites, flocks of birds, schools of fish, colonies of bacteria, or even herds of terrestrial animals." https://lnkd.in/dTg7N-6 View in LinkedIn

ENZYMATIC SALTATIONS. "Enzymes are erroneously considered exquisitely precise and efficient molecular catalysts. Natural enzymes are also evolvable: in other words, they can migrate through mutational trajectories to arrive at alternative catalytic activities, sometimes in unexpected saltatory fashion." https://lnkd.in/d3RnrBP View in LinkedIn

REPURPOSING OLDER FORMS. "New specialized metabolic pathways continuously emerged in a lineage-specific manner by independently recruiting and refining descendants of these radiating families to catalyze sequential chemical reactions." http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/nph.12416/full View in LinkedIn
