Michael Levin: Biology, Life, Aliens, Evolution, Embryogenesis & Xenobots | Lex Fridman Podcast #325 | is a continuum. And I think that it doesn't have to be smart with foresight like us, but | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0325-large.html#02:08:15.920 |
Michael Levin: Biology, Life, Aliens, Evolution, Embryogenesis & Xenobots | Lex Fridman Podcast #325 | it doesn't have to be completely blind either. I think there may be aspects of it. And in | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0325-large.html#02:08:20.880 |
Michael Levin: Biology, Life, Aliens, Evolution, Embryogenesis & Xenobots | Lex Fridman Podcast #325 | particular, this kind of multi scale competency might give it a little bit of look ahead maybe | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0325-large.html#02:08:25.720 |
Michael Levin: Biology, Life, Aliens, Evolution, Embryogenesis & Xenobots | Lex Fridman Podcast #325 | or a little bit of problem solving sort of baked in. But that's going to be completely | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0325-large.html#02:08:30.760 |
Michael Levin: Biology, Life, Aliens, Evolution, Embryogenesis & Xenobots | Lex Fridman Podcast #325 | different in different systems. I do think it's general. I don't think it's just on Earth. | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0325-large.html#02:08:36.700 |
Michael Levin: Biology, Life, Aliens, Evolution, Embryogenesis & Xenobots | Lex Fridman Podcast #325 | I think it's a very fundamental thing. | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0325-large.html#02:08:41.640 |
Michael Levin: Biology, Life, Aliens, Evolution, Embryogenesis & Xenobots | Lex Fridman Podcast #325 | And it does seem to have a kind of direction that it's taking us that's somehow perhaps | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0325-large.html#02:08:44.040 |
Michael Levin: Biology, Life, Aliens, Evolution, Embryogenesis & Xenobots | Lex Fridman Podcast #325 | is defined by the environment itself. It feels like we're headed towards something. Like, | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0325-large.html#02:08:50.120 |
Michael Levin: Biology, Life, Aliens, Evolution, Embryogenesis & Xenobots | Lex Fridman Podcast #325 | we're playing out a script that was just like a single cell defines the entire organism. | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0325-large.html#02:08:57.360 |
Michael Levin: Biology, Life, Aliens, Evolution, Embryogenesis & Xenobots | Lex Fridman Podcast #325 | It feels like from the origin of Earth itself, it's playing out a kind of script. You can't | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0325-large.html#02:09:03.060 |
Michael Levin: Biology, Life, Aliens, Evolution, Embryogenesis & Xenobots | Lex Fridman Podcast #325 | really go any other way. | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0325-large.html#02:09:10.480 |
Michael Levin: Biology, Life, Aliens, Evolution, Embryogenesis & Xenobots | Lex Fridman Podcast #325 | I mean, so this is very controversial, and I don't know the answer. But people have argued | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0325-large.html#02:09:12.480 |
Michael Levin: Biology, Life, Aliens, Evolution, Embryogenesis & Xenobots | Lex Fridman Podcast #325 | that this is called, you know, sort of rewinding the tape of life, right? And some people have | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0325-large.html#02:09:17.280 |
Michael Levin: Biology, Life, Aliens, Evolution, Embryogenesis & Xenobots | Lex Fridman Podcast #325 | argued, I think, I think Conway Morris, maybe has argued that it is that there's a deep | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0325-large.html#02:09:22.720 |
Michael Levin: Biology, Life, Aliens, Evolution, Embryogenesis & Xenobots | Lex Fridman Podcast #325 | attractor, for example, to human to the human kind of structure and that and that if you | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0325-large.html#02:09:28.440 |
Michael Levin: Biology, Life, Aliens, Evolution, Embryogenesis & Xenobots | Lex Fridman Podcast #325 | were to rewind it again, you'd basically get more or less the same thing. And then other | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0325-large.html#02:09:34.640 |
Michael Levin: Biology, Life, Aliens, Evolution, Embryogenesis & Xenobots | Lex Fridman Podcast #325 | people have argued that, no, it's incredibly sensitive to frozen accidents. And then once | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0325-large.html#02:09:37.560 |
Michael Levin: Biology, Life, Aliens, Evolution, Embryogenesis & Xenobots | Lex Fridman Podcast #325 | certain stochastic decisions are made downstream, everything is going to be different. I don't | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0325-large.html#02:09:41.920 |
Michael Levin: Biology, Life, Aliens, Evolution, Embryogenesis & Xenobots | Lex Fridman Podcast #325 | know. I don't know. You know, we're very bad at predicting attractors in the space of complex | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0325-large.html#02:09:46.200 |
Michael Levin: Biology, Life, Aliens, Evolution, Embryogenesis & Xenobots | Lex Fridman Podcast #325 | systems, generally speaking, right? We don't know. So maybe, so maybe evolution on Earth | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0325-large.html#02:09:52.760 |
Michael Levin: Biology, Life, Aliens, Evolution, Embryogenesis & Xenobots | Lex Fridman Podcast #325 | has these deep attractors that no matter what has happened, it pretty much would likely | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0325-large.html#02:09:56.880 |
Michael Levin: Biology, Life, Aliens, Evolution, Embryogenesis & Xenobots | Lex Fridman Podcast #325 | to end up there or maybe not. I don't know. | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0325-large.html#02:10:01.360 |
Michael Levin: Biology, Life, Aliens, Evolution, Embryogenesis & Xenobots | Lex Fridman Podcast #325 | What's a really difficult idea to imagine that if you ran Earth a million times, 500,000 | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0325-large.html#02:10:03.640 |
Michael Levin: Biology, Life, Aliens, Evolution, Embryogenesis & Xenobots | Lex Fridman Podcast #325 | times you would get Hitler? Like, yeah, we don't like to think like that. We think like, | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0325-large.html#02:10:10.880 |
Michael Levin: Biology, Life, Aliens, Evolution, Embryogenesis & Xenobots | Lex Fridman Podcast #325 | because at least maybe in America, you'd like to think that individual decisions can change | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0325-large.html#02:10:17.160 |
Michael Levin: Biology, Life, Aliens, Evolution, Embryogenesis & Xenobots | Lex Fridman Podcast #325 | the world. And if individual decisions could change the world, then surely any perturbation | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0325-large.html#02:10:23.480 |
Michael Levin: Biology, Life, Aliens, Evolution, Embryogenesis & Xenobots | Lex Fridman Podcast #325 | could result in a totally different trajectory. But maybe there's a, in this competency hierarchy, | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0325-large.html#02:10:30.760 |
Michael Levin: Biology, Life, Aliens, Evolution, Embryogenesis & Xenobots | Lex Fridman Podcast #325 | it's a self correcting system. There's just ultimately, there's a bunch of chaos that | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0325-large.html#02:10:38.560 |
Michael Levin: Biology, Life, Aliens, Evolution, Embryogenesis & Xenobots | Lex Fridman Podcast #325 | ultimately is leading towards something like a super intelligent, artificial intelligence | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0325-large.html#02:10:43.320 |
Michael Levin: Biology, Life, Aliens, Evolution, Embryogenesis & Xenobots | Lex Fridman Podcast #325 | system that answers 42. I mean, there might be a kind of imperative for life that it's | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0325-large.html#02:10:47.200 |
Michael Levin: Biology, Life, Aliens, Evolution, Embryogenesis & Xenobots | Lex Fridman Podcast #325 | headed to. And we're too focused on our day to day life of getting coffee and snacks and | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0325-large.html#02:10:56.800 |
Michael Levin: Biology, Life, Aliens, Evolution, Embryogenesis & Xenobots | Lex Fridman Podcast #325 | having sex and getting a promotion at work, not to see the big imperative of life on Earth | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0325-large.html#02:11:04.360 |
Michael Levin: Biology, Life, Aliens, Evolution, Embryogenesis & Xenobots | Lex Fridman Podcast #325 | that is headed towards something. | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0325-large.html#02:11:12.840 |
Michael Levin: Biology, Life, Aliens, Evolution, Embryogenesis & Xenobots | Lex Fridman Podcast #325 | Yeah, maybe, maybe. It's difficult. I think one of the things that's important about Chimerica | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0325-large.html#02:11:14.560 |
Michael Levin: Biology, Life, Aliens, Evolution, Embryogenesis & Xenobots | Lex Fridman Podcast #325 | bioengineering technologies, all of those things are that we have to start developing | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0325-large.html#02:11:24.640 |
Michael Levin: Biology, Life, Aliens, Evolution, Embryogenesis & Xenobots | Lex Fridman Podcast #325 | a better science of predicting the cognitive goals of composite systems. So we're just | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0325-large.html#02:11:29.520 |
Michael Levin: Biology, Life, Aliens, Evolution, Embryogenesis & Xenobots | Lex Fridman Podcast #325 | not very good at it, right? We don't know if I create a composite system, and this could | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0325-large.html#02:11:35.240 |
Michael Levin: Biology, Life, Aliens, Evolution, Embryogenesis & Xenobots | Lex Fridman Podcast #325 | be Internet of Things or swarm robotics or a cellular swarm or whatever. What is the | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0325-large.html#02:11:41.320 |
Michael Levin: Biology, Life, Aliens, Evolution, Embryogenesis & Xenobots | Lex Fridman Podcast #325 | emergent intelligence of this thing? First of all, what level is it going to be at? And | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0325-large.html#02:11:48.240 |
Michael Levin: Biology, Life, Aliens, Evolution, Embryogenesis & Xenobots | Lex Fridman Podcast #325 | if it has goal directed capacity, what are the goals going to be? Like, we are just not | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0325-large.html#02:11:51.640 |
Michael Levin: Biology, Life, Aliens, Evolution, Embryogenesis & Xenobots | Lex Fridman Podcast #325 | very good at predicting that yet. And I think that it's an existential level need for us | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0325-large.html#02:11:56.240 |
Michael Levin: Biology, Life, Aliens, Evolution, Embryogenesis & Xenobots | Lex Fridman Podcast #325 | to be able to because we're building these things all the time, right? We're building | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0325-large.html#02:12:06.420 |
Michael Levin: Biology, Life, Aliens, Evolution, Embryogenesis & Xenobots | Lex Fridman Podcast #325 | both physical structures like swarm robotics, and we're building social financial structures | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0325-large.html#02:12:10.520 |
Michael Levin: Biology, Life, Aliens, Evolution, Embryogenesis & Xenobots | Lex Fridman Podcast #325 | and so on, with very little ability to predict what sort of autonomous goals that system | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0325-large.html#02:12:16.060 |
Michael Levin: Biology, Life, Aliens, Evolution, Embryogenesis & Xenobots | Lex Fridman Podcast #325 | is going to have, of which we are now cogs. And so learning to predict and control those | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0325-large.html#02:12:21.640 |
Michael Levin: Biology, Life, Aliens, Evolution, Embryogenesis & Xenobots | Lex Fridman Podcast #325 | things is going to be critical. So in fact, if you're right and there is some kind of | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0325-large.html#02:12:26.780 |
Michael Levin: Biology, Life, Aliens, Evolution, Embryogenesis & Xenobots | Lex Fridman Podcast #325 | attractor to evolution, it would be nice to know what that is and then to make a rational | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0325-large.html#02:12:31.400 |
Michael Levin: Biology, Life, Aliens, Evolution, Embryogenesis & Xenobots | Lex Fridman Podcast #325 | decision of whether we're going to go along or we're going to pop out of it or try to | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0325-large.html#02:12:36.680 |
Michael Levin: Biology, Life, Aliens, Evolution, Embryogenesis & Xenobots | Lex Fridman Podcast #325 | pop out of it because there's no guarantee. I mean, that's the other kind of important | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0325-large.html#02:12:39.800 |
Michael Levin: Biology, Life, Aliens, Evolution, Embryogenesis & Xenobots | Lex Fridman Podcast #325 | thing. A lot of people, I get a lot of complaints from people who email me and say, you know, | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0325-large.html#02:12:44.120 |
Michael Levin: Biology, Life, Aliens, Evolution, Embryogenesis & Xenobots | Lex Fridman Podcast #325 | what you're doing, it isn't natural. And I'll say, look, natural, that'd be nice if somebody | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0325-large.html#02:12:49.760 |
Michael Levin: Biology, Life, Aliens, Evolution, Embryogenesis & Xenobots | Lex Fridman Podcast #325 | was making sure that natural was matched up to our values, but no one's doing that. Evolution | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0325-large.html#02:12:56.240 |
Michael Levin: Biology, Life, Aliens, Evolution, Embryogenesis & Xenobots | Lex Fridman Podcast #325 | optimizes for biomass. That's it. Nobody's optimizing. It's not optimizing for your happiness. | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0325-large.html#02:13:02.520 |
Michael Levin: Biology, Life, Aliens, Evolution, Embryogenesis & Xenobots | Lex Fridman Podcast #325 | I don't think necessarily it's optimizing for intelligence or fairness or any of that | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0325-large.html#02:13:07.160 |
Michael Levin: Biology, Life, Aliens, Evolution, Embryogenesis & Xenobots | Lex Fridman Podcast #325 | stuff. | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0325-large.html#02:13:11.600 |
Michael Levin: Biology, Life, Aliens, Evolution, Embryogenesis & Xenobots | Lex Fridman Podcast #325 | I'm going to find that person that emailed you, beat them up, take their place, steal | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0325-large.html#02:13:12.600 |
Michael Levin: Biology, Life, Aliens, Evolution, Embryogenesis & Xenobots | Lex Fridman Podcast #325 | everything they own and say, no, this is natural. | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0325-large.html#02:13:18.720 |
Michael Levin: Biology, Life, Aliens, Evolution, Embryogenesis & Xenobots | Lex Fridman Podcast #325 | This is natural. Yeah, exactly. Because it comes from an old worldview where you could | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0325-large.html#02:13:22.040 |
Michael Levin: Biology, Life, Aliens, Evolution, Embryogenesis & Xenobots | Lex Fridman Podcast #325 | assume that whatever is natural, that that's probably for the best. And I think we're long | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0325-large.html#02:13:28.200 |
Michael Levin: Biology, Life, Aliens, Evolution, Embryogenesis & Xenobots | Lex Fridman Podcast #325 | out of that garden of Eden kind of view. So I think we can do better. I think we, and | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0325-large.html#02:13:32.040 |
Michael Levin: Biology, Life, Aliens, Evolution, Embryogenesis & Xenobots | Lex Fridman Podcast #325 | we have to, right? Natural just isn't great for a lot of life forms. | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0325-large.html#02:13:37.000 |
Michael Levin: Biology, Life, Aliens, Evolution, Embryogenesis & Xenobots | Lex Fridman Podcast #325 | What are some cool synthetic organisms that you think about, you dream about? When you | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0325-large.html#02:13:42.020 |
Michael Levin: Biology, Life, Aliens, Evolution, Embryogenesis & Xenobots | Lex Fridman Podcast #325 | think about embodied mind, what do you imagine? What do you hope to build? | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0325-large.html#02:13:46.520 |
Michael Levin: Biology, Life, Aliens, Evolution, Embryogenesis & Xenobots | Lex Fridman Podcast #325 | Yeah, on a practical level, what I really hope to do is to gain enough of an understanding | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0325-large.html#02:13:51.400 |
Michael Levin: Biology, Life, Aliens, Evolution, Embryogenesis & Xenobots | Lex Fridman Podcast #325 | of the embodied intelligence of the organs and tissues such that we can achieve a radically | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0325-large.html#02:13:57.700 |
Michael Levin: Biology, Life, Aliens, Evolution, Embryogenesis & Xenobots | Lex Fridman Podcast #325 | different regenerative medicine so that we can say, basically, and I think about it as, | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0325-large.html#02:14:04.680 |
Michael Levin: Biology, Life, Aliens, Evolution, Embryogenesis & Xenobots | Lex Fridman Podcast #325 | you know, in terms of like, okay, can you, what's the goal kind of end game for this | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0325-large.html#02:14:11.080 |
Michael Levin: Biology, Life, Aliens, Evolution, Embryogenesis & Xenobots | Lex Fridman Podcast #325 | whole thing? To me, the end game is something that you would call an anatomical compiler. | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0325-large.html#02:14:18.200 |
Michael Levin: Biology, Life, Aliens, Evolution, Embryogenesis & Xenobots | Lex Fridman Podcast #325 | So the idea is you would sit down in front of the computer and you would draw the body | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0325-large.html#02:14:22.480 |
Michael Levin: Biology, Life, Aliens, Evolution, Embryogenesis & Xenobots | Lex Fridman Podcast #325 | or the organ that you wanted. Not molecular details, but like, yeah, this is what I want. | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0325-large.html#02:14:27.440 |
Michael Levin: Biology, Life, Aliens, Evolution, Embryogenesis & Xenobots | Lex Fridman Podcast #325 | I want a six legged, you know, frog with a propeller on top, or I want a heart that looks | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0325-large.html#02:14:31.880 |
Michael Levin: Biology, Life, Aliens, Evolution, Embryogenesis & Xenobots | Lex Fridman Podcast #325 | like this, or I want a leg that looks like this. And what it would do if we knew what | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0325-large.html#02:14:36.200 |
Michael Levin: Biology, Life, Aliens, Evolution, Embryogenesis & Xenobots | Lex Fridman Podcast #325 | we were doing is put out, convert that anatomical description into a set of stimuli that would | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0325-large.html#02:14:39.800 |
Michael Levin: Biology, Life, Aliens, Evolution, Embryogenesis & Xenobots | Lex Fridman Podcast #325 | have to be given to cells to convince them to build exactly that thing, right? I probably | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0325-large.html#02:14:47.000 |
Michael Levin: Biology, Life, Aliens, Evolution, Embryogenesis & Xenobots | Lex Fridman Podcast #325 | won't live to see it, but I think it's achievable. And I think with that, if we can have that, | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0325-large.html#02:14:51.320 |
Michael Levin: Biology, Life, Aliens, Evolution, Embryogenesis & Xenobots | Lex Fridman Podcast #325 | then that is basically the solution to all of medicine except for infectious disease. | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0325-large.html#02:14:56.840 |
Michael Levin: Biology, Life, Aliens, Evolution, Embryogenesis & Xenobots | Lex Fridman Podcast #325 | So birth defects, right? Traumatic injury, cancer, aging, degenerative disease. If we | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0325-large.html#02:15:03.140 |
Michael Levin: Biology, Life, Aliens, Evolution, Embryogenesis & Xenobots | Lex Fridman Podcast #325 | knew how to tell cells what to build, all of those things go away. So those things go | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0325-large.html#02:15:07.620 |
Michael Levin: Biology, Life, Aliens, Evolution, Embryogenesis & Xenobots | Lex Fridman Podcast #325 | away. And the positive feedback spiral of economic costs, where all of the advances | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0325-large.html#02:15:11.440 |
Michael Levin: Biology, Life, Aliens, Evolution, Embryogenesis & Xenobots | Lex Fridman Podcast #325 | are increasingly more heroic and expensive interventions of a sinking ship when you're | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0325-large.html#02:15:18.520 |
Michael Levin: Biology, Life, Aliens, Evolution, Embryogenesis & Xenobots | Lex Fridman Podcast #325 | like 90 and so on, right? All of that goes away because basically, instead of trying | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0325-large.html#02:15:22.880 |
Michael Levin: Biology, Life, Aliens, Evolution, Embryogenesis & Xenobots | Lex Fridman Podcast #325 | to fix you up as you degrade, you progressively regenerate, you apply the regenerative medicine | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0325-large.html#02:15:26.980 |
Michael Levin: Biology, Life, Aliens, Evolution, Embryogenesis & Xenobots | Lex Fridman Podcast #325 | early before things degrade. So I think that that'll have massive economic impacts over | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0325-large.html#02:15:33.800 |
Michael Levin: Biology, Life, Aliens, Evolution, Embryogenesis & Xenobots | Lex Fridman Podcast #325 | what we're trying to do now, which is not at all sustainable. And that's what I hope. | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0325-large.html#02:15:38.920 |
Michael Levin: Biology, Life, Aliens, Evolution, Embryogenesis & Xenobots | Lex Fridman Podcast #325 | I hope that we get it. So to me, yes, the xenobots will be doing useful things, cleaning | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0325-large.html#02:15:43.800 |
Michael Levin: Biology, Life, Aliens, Evolution, Embryogenesis & Xenobots | Lex Fridman Podcast #325 | up the environment, cleaning out your joints and all that kind of stuff. But more important | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0325-large.html#02:15:50.080 |
Michael Levin: Biology, Life, Aliens, Evolution, Embryogenesis & Xenobots | Lex Fridman Podcast #325 | than that, I think we can use these synthetic systems to try to develop a science of detecting | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0325-large.html#02:15:55.480 |
Michael Levin: Biology, Life, Aliens, Evolution, Embryogenesis & Xenobots | Lex Fridman Podcast #325 | and manipulating the goals of collective intelligences of cells specifically for regenerative medicine. | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0325-large.html#02:16:04.920 |
Michael Levin: Biology, Life, Aliens, Evolution, Embryogenesis & Xenobots | Lex Fridman Podcast #325 | And then sort of beyond that, if we think further beyond that, what I hope is that kind | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0325-large.html#02:16:10.840 |
Michael Levin: Biology, Life, Aliens, Evolution, Embryogenesis & Xenobots | Lex Fridman Podcast #325 | of like what you said, all of this drives a reconsideration of how we formulate ethical | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0325-large.html#02:16:15.840 |
Michael Levin: Biology, Life, Aliens, Evolution, Embryogenesis & Xenobots | Lex Fridman Podcast #325 | norms because this old school, so in the olden days, what you could do is if you were confronted | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0325-large.html#02:16:22.480 |
Michael Levin: Biology, Life, Aliens, Evolution, Embryogenesis & Xenobots | Lex Fridman Podcast #325 | with something, you could tap on it, right? And if you heard a metallic clanging sound, | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0325-large.html#02:16:29.080 |
Michael Levin: Biology, Life, Aliens, Evolution, Embryogenesis & Xenobots | Lex Fridman Podcast #325 | you'd say, ah, fine, right? So you could conclude it was made in a factory. I can take it apart. | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0325-large.html#02:16:33.200 |
Michael Levin: Biology, Life, Aliens, Evolution, Embryogenesis & Xenobots | Lex Fridman Podcast #325 | I can do whatever, right? If you did that and you got sort of a squishy kind of warm | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0325-large.html#02:16:37.160 |
Michael Levin: Biology, Life, Aliens, Evolution, Embryogenesis & Xenobots | Lex Fridman Podcast #325 | sensation, you'd say, ah, I need to be more or less nice to it and whatever. That's not | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0325-large.html#02:16:40.960 |
Michael Levin: Biology, Life, Aliens, Evolution, Embryogenesis & Xenobots | Lex Fridman Podcast #325 | going to be feasible. It was never really feasible, but it was good enough because we | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0325-large.html#02:16:46.080 |
Michael Levin: Biology, Life, Aliens, Evolution, Embryogenesis & Xenobots | Lex Fridman Podcast #325 | didn't have any, we didn't know any better. That needs to go. And I think that by breaking | https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0325-large.html#02:16:49.360 |
