(I started programming such a simulator. Then I gave up after a while, because I’m still not good enough at Rust. 🤣🤣🤣)

The thing I love about this guy's work, his explanation and teaching is how he spells out the recipe and attirbutes you need:
- Replication
- Blueprint
- Inheritance
- Mutation
- Selection

That was a fun video to watch. I suppose he is saying evolution doesn't exist, because you cannot establish all those inputs, outputs and neurons from the beginning. But I did like the way the brains cope with change, and it seems mutations do help with that change. Hmm? One needs to do a lot of thinking about this...
@off_grid_living I _think_ the key takeaway here is that whilst "Evolutionary Processes" can be explained, modelled and simulated, nothing in science can explain how it all started in the first place. Well nothing except Engineering of course.
For example, if I sit down and replicate this guy's work and improve upon it, who created the first generation and the simulated world in which these "things" live in?
That's right. @prologic did (otherwise known as the creator 😅)

My thinking is this, what essentially is a mutation in the program, a random change to the letter as Hex code, which would cause a logical or sytax error, or a change in the number weights of the neural network firing. Whatever it is, I cannot see mutations having any affect unless its intentionally wired into the programming somehow, and than by definition, it's not evolution. What he has created is a pre determined set of inputs and outputs and neural operators that solved problems (simple ones) but I confess it looked great and preformed well.
