"Why #brains? Brains are very costly...it seems like they are not a very good idea to bring complex cognition to a #biosphere that just needs simple replicators."
"I also want to explore the problem of #consciousness, which is around all the time..."

Two different views of #evolution:
- Stephen Jay Gould and an emphasis on #contingency
- Simon Conway Morris/Pere Albach and an emphasis on #constraints and #convergence
--> "Replay the tape with different results vs. 'the logic of monsters' & 'life's solution'"

"This thing [points to transistor] lives in a centralized system. This thing [points to cancer drug] lives in US."
"I'm going to pick on economics, because we like to do that at SFI. 'Ooh, look at that cover! So techy. Global, heat maps...' But here's 'Networks' [in the textbook]. THAT'S IT. Here's '#ComplexityEconomics.' NOTHING."
