A theoretical computer scientist and former guest discusses their collaboration on a paper exploring the origin and evolution of complexity in the universe. They also share their new research direction and plans to finish the paper.
Welcome to the October 2023 Ask Me Anything episode of Mindscape! These monthly excursions are funded by Patreon supporters (who are also the ones asking the questions). We take questions asked by Patreons, whittle them down to a more manageable number -- based primarily on whether I have anything interesting to say about them, not whether the questions themselves are good -- and sometimes group them together if they are about a similar topic. Enjoy!
