🗨️ For internet users, who believe, a #description of an ongoing crime against humanity is #racism: you are working against int'l law, humanitarian laws and the freedom of expression. You are therefore against every existing basic right, legal right and historical data of humanity.

Now you have two options: educating yourself by reading a book on law, or getting rid of non-intelligent #algorithms.

Option three: Combine option one and two.

If one constructs the maps of metabolism, repair, and replication meticulously, one can indeed fabricate an (M,R)-system that has all the features of being alive. … In relational biology, artificial life is about the artful fabrication of an (M,R)-system. It is most certainly not about making algorithmic simulations that can deceive us into believing that it is alive.

…what if life itself is, even in principle, nonsimulable? There are, of course, many things that mechanization by rote does better than life, in terms of speed, repeatability, precision, and so forth. On the other hand, a living system…may be characterized by its ability to handle ambiguities and take chances, indeed, its ability to err. These are precisely the processes that cannot, by definition…, be modelled algorithmically.
