–“As @Moritz has pointed out, via Joscha Bach (@plinz) and Michael Levin (@drmichaellevin), the software runs on imperfect hardware, but at large scales the imperfections average out and you just have the actors collectively running an OS, one that was gene-hardware wired into them to run and culture-wetware encouraged while they were young.
The hardware self-modifies based on how much agency and load each component can gain and bear (distributed) – which is different from solid-state computers where the hardware stays fixed.
So we don’t have to average out the result of a silicon computation, but statistics shows the averaging out of how biological populations compute.”– @MichaelSurrago
