They discuss the concept of Markov Blankets and its implications, the debate on perception, Bayesian inference and the Free Energy Principle, criticism and clarity in the concept of the Markov Blanket, perspectives on inference in psychology and neuroscience, the Free Energy Principle and self organization, Jeremy England's work on complex formations, and the importance of instrumentalism and realism in science.
