Mohammed Al-Murtadha, author of this article and book reached out to me. They are a bit off from the center of my interests, but may be closer to those of other members of the ALife community.
Rethinking Capital and Socialism through the Lens of Organized Randomness [link in comments]
Our paper on detecting terraformed planets is finally published: doi.org/10.3847/1538...
Context: we wanted a method to detect life in the universe that does not depend on any particular chemistry or hyperspecific definitions of life

For authors submitting papers to ALIFE 2026 once the next week. Today I belatedly learned that submissions should NOT be anonymized. This came from Chrystopher Nehaniv (@nehanivcl.bsky.social) one of the conference co-chairs.

Life is a temporary defiance of the Second Law. I built a simulation that takes that literally.
Agents eat, excrete, generate heat, age, and die. Mass is strictly conserved. Nothing is programmed - everything emerges from physics.

First-ever animated movie of a phase transition to replicators inside the BFF artificial life program. Crudely, Y-axis = size of program and X-axis = ops executed. The colormap could use some work. :-) @blaiseaguera #Alife #ArtificialIntelligence
Running the BFF ALife system on Google Colab. Today I saw my first replicators. The compressed size of the soup drops sharply when multiple copies of the same string appear. The total amount of computation starts low then explodes. #ArtificialLife #ALife #DigitalSoup
