1/5 Now in Artificial Life: our research on the creativity of unsupervised learning! Core finding: a simple model of attractor networks with Hebbian learning is sufficient to constitute a (minimal) creative process, yielding creative products as solutions of the optimization.

When Schrödinger Reinvented the Wheel
Erwin Schrödinger’s “What is Life?” is perhaps one of the most influential works in theoretical biology, but what if I told you that one of the key ideas discussed in it was nothing new?
