Great to see this. Tons more to explore in this space, especially with strides in commodity AI performance. Best demo I ever saw was ecologist Tom Ray showing Tierra ALife at the MIT AI Lab in 1991. Was a signal for the beginning of a new era, the end of GOFAI and the start of automatic machine trained performance. Evolution's effectiveness in optimization/efficiency dynamics that Ray first showed in Tierra have been demonstrated in the closed world game players eg AlphaZero but deploying them in open world large scale environments remains open.
