INSIGHT

Organismic vs. Algorithmic Agency

  • Simulating intelligent behavior or creating algorithms that produce human-like output doesn't equate to true intelligence or life.
  • The concept of 'agency' differs significantly between computational agents and organismic agents.
  • Even simple organisms, like bacteria, exhibit a form of 'caring' by pursuing food and avoiding toxins, demonstrating a basic value system.
  • Current algorithmic architectures, regardless of complexity, lack this inherent value system.
