I think GA allows for fewer symbols to express similar mathematical ideas, just as J or APL allow for more concise programs. The whole 'Notation as a Tool of Thought' thing by Ken Iverson. I believe new notations require time to sink in to usage for thinking, and then implemented in to the things of the world. We are heading towards concurrent and parallel hardware, distributed systems, GPUs, array languages, and vector processing machines. Maybe a GA implementation will work at a more basic level when we step away from the archaic hardware architecture we have grown so accustomed to and speak GA at a more native level. Lisp machines that speak native GA! Call me a convert or a 'gusher'. I like the beauty of the GA as written, although I plead ignorance to any of the attempts to render it in today's software/hardware. I did read of a company trying to embed it into a graphics processor chip vs. a software library. I'll have to find the reference again. [EDIT] Here's the link for the chip: http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/xpl/articleDetails.jsp?arnumber=6783758 http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/xpl/articleDetails.jsp?arnumber=6...
