@prologic I tend to agree with you, and it's one of the reasons why I did evolutionary computation in my PhD. My PhD advisor was big on the idea that even though we don't know what life or intelligence is well enough to make it from scratch, maybe we can set up an artificial world in which (simulated) life can "emerge" from the primordial soup, so to speak. I thought that idea was pretty compelling and I worked on it for awhile. It's why I, too, and frustrated by the term "AI" and how it's slapped onto anything these days. Some of the stuff that people call AI right now would have been called "an algorithm" or "a computer program" not so long ago 😆
@abucci It's actually one of the aspects of the "family of machine learning" that I find the most intriguing. If you've ever played the game Creates (I haven't, but know a lot about it), it was an amazing piece of work. I'd love to work on something like this one day or see something like it at a much larger scale 👌
