The Lex Fridman interview with Lee Cronin "Controversial Nature Paper on Evolution of Life and Universe" really opened my eyes. I find myself agreeing with the essential points Lee lays out, that there is a mathematical / physics-based definition for life or life-like systems such as advanced AI and robotics.

- kthielen 3y agoYeah but, how is an assembly index different than an LZW code?
- wegfawefgawefg 3y agoI think they discussed that in the podcast.
- kthielen 3y agoI don't think they explained how it's different, I did listen to the podcast before posting my comment. It's a pretty basic question that IMHO demands a clear and adequate explanation. If you read the 'abracadabra' example here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Assembly_theory https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Assembly_theory ... you could be reading the abstract to an early paper explaining LZW codes.
