michael levin's work is a door that invites study into some of those deep intuitions which felt out of our grasp but we know are true.. but also utterly despicable quackery that may leak out of labs into the normieland.
Michael Levin@drmichaellevin
A lot of people have suggested over the centuries that ecosystems might have some degree of cognition. What would that look like? Could there be recognizable memory phenomena on the scale of population dynamics? Here's a #preprint where amazing high-school student @asamanta42, @HananelHazan, and I use a model system - in silico predator-prey dynamics - and analyze the possibility of several kinds of learning: arxiv.org/abs/2605.30109 (the basics are kind of like thoughtforms.life/but-where-is-t…, but some very cool new stuff here, including the interesting and unique pattern of learning-compatible values in the parameter space).
