this tech doubles the value of basic literacy

its ironic because this kind of tool sneering is a frequent point of friction between technical and non-technicals 'oh you used excel to do clerical work? why didnt you just write a bash script'

they're reinventing 'elitist techbros' from first principles

What happens when you put competing neural nets in a Petri Dish and start changing the rules while they adapt?

Earlier, we released PD-NCA, where neural nets are the organisms that learn during simulation. Now we're releasing Digital Ecosystems: a web-based platform for interactive ALIFE research.

people are naturally bad at limits

if you come, they will build it

life could be so much better without this dumb geopolitics dickwaving
