Parallels between evolutionary systems and hill-climbing algorithms have been floating around for a long time at this point.
- jhbadger 2y agoAlthough normally in the other direction -- genetic algorithms and genetic programming directly mimic evolution by natural selection, for example.
- evv555 2y agoIt was just the less controversial direction. You would be accused of anthropomorphizing and teleological thinking if you suggested evolution is a search process towards some optimum. Good luck talking to an orthodox biologist about evolutionary processes with constructs like agents and intelligence.
