However, names like Pattee, Cariani, and Hofmeyr were left out of their scope despite their enormous contributions to the topic. As shown in my latest #complexitycat essay, the first in proposing time to resolve self-reference was Tomek Korbak, not them!/3 amahury.github.io/posts/time-and…
No #complexitycat blog this week as I am attending #CCS2025! Next week I'll write about a very controversial theory... Can you guess which one? 😶🌫️
Last week, #complexitycat brought you a short essay tracing the idea of life as a thermodynamic phenomenon out of equilibrium, discovering that Schrödinger failed to cite relevant contributions when writing his popular “What is Life?”. Want to know more? Check it out below!🐈⬛✍️
The characterization of life as a thermodynamic phenomenon out of equilibrium is usually attributed to Schrödinger. What if I told you that he wasn't the first (not even the second😶🌫️) to reach that famous and influential conclusion?/1 #complexitycat🐈⬛ amahury.github.io/posts/reinvent…
The latest #complexitycat essay is dedicated to review their approach, pointing out avenues for future refinement as well as potential connections with other approaches, such as the free energy principle. Read it now now and let me know what you think!/3 complexitycat.org/posts/semantic…
A group of renowned #ALife researchers recently published a paper exploring open questions on the relationship between life and self-reference. As usual, part of the literature addressing these “unresolved problems” was ignored.../1🤓 #complexitycat 🐈⬛ amahury.github.io/posts/time-and…

There will be no #complexitycat blog this week, as I am attending #ALIFE2025! Yesterday I was very busy with a couple of workshop presentations, but from now on I will be covering the entire event. This is my favorite conference, so expect boundless enthusiasm from me! 😸🦠
Did you enjoy our article on Turing vs. Wittgenstein? This week, #complexitycat will bring you another long essay on a controversial topic. Trust me, it will be worth the wait.😶🌫️
Inspired by Wittgenstein's critiques and Rosen's insights into Church's thesis, this essay outlines some of the major epistemological gaps surrounding the concept of computation, some of which, in my opinion, have been ignored or taken for granted by the scientific community./2
The latest #complexitycat essay is about Wolpert-Kolchinsky’s approach to semantic information. Their metric can be applied to rocks, hurricanes, and cells, so what does this score reveal about life vs. non-life phenomena?🤔 Details below👇 complexitycat.org/posts/semantic…
Shannon's information focuses on the syntactic aspect of communication without regard for what the messages actually mean. Can we measure meaning? What is the relationship between semantic information and autonomous agency? 🧐💭 #complexitycat 🐈⬛./1 complexitycat.org/posts/semantic…

As a promising avenue for unifying physics and biology, assembly theory (AT) has been subject of controversy, being both praised and refuted at the same time. What is its current status? Has it really quantified selection and evolution?/1 #complexitycat🐈⬛ amahury.github.io/posts/demystif…
#complexitycat is releasing a new domain: now you can enjoy our content at complexitycat.org 😸 Don't forget to read our latest essay on self-reference and living systems. Soon we'll offer another review of a popular semantic information metric. Can you guess what it is?🫣

Last week, #complexitycat published the most comprehensive timeline ever written on Assembly Theory! It's perfect if you're interested in the subject and don't want to read the thousands of criticisms and counter-criticisms that have been published over the last five years.✍️😼💭

As December approaches, we bring you the last #complexitycat thread of 2025, full of opportunities, from postdoctoral fellowships to international events taking place in 2026! Here we go! 👇🧵
Special thanks to @gekaremi (OIST), who introduced me to Ervin Bauer's work and even helped me translate (from Russian to English) some of the historical notes I cited in the manuscript. I dedicate this #complexitycat essay to him!

This of course doesn’t diminish Schrödinger’s book. On the contrary, it enriches it by restoring the plural origins of an idea we too easily compress into a single name. Check out the latest #complexitycat essay and learn more about Ervin Bauer's work!/3 amahury.github.io/posts/reinvent…
Self-reference drives any theory of metabolic closure: autopoiesis, autocatalytic sets, (M,R)-systems... Yet a recent paper by famous #ALife people overlooks key voices: Pattee, Cariani, Hofmeyr, Korbak. Let's stop reinventing the wheel! Read the latest #complexitycat essay!✍️

What does AT need to be widely accepted?🤔 1. Treat alphabets as evolving. 2. Embed explicit probabilities over assembly paths. 3. Show empirical wins where ontological structure (not symbol statistics) does the explanatory lifting. Read the latest #complexitycat essay about it!

Check out this archived #complexitycat review, where I argue for a reconciliation between the autopoiesis-anticipation-adaptation trialectic proposed by the authors and broader conceptions of what we mean by computation, beyond symbolic transformations./3 amahury.github.io/posts/review-n…
I just realized #complexitycat was featured at the #ALife Newsletter! alife-newsletter.github.io/Newsletter/edi… Many thanks to @imy_tk!
Read the new #complexitycat essay, where I review this manuscript and highlight relevant ideas regarding our conception of computation and automata, suggesting that we should rethink them and ground them in substrate-dependent terms./3 amahury.github.io/posts/how-chem…

If you are interested in the origin of life, artificial life, or theoretical biology in general, this is a must-read for you. To give you a good idea of the extensive content in this article, today #complexitycat brings you a review from our #archive. /3 amahury.github.io/posts/review-c…

Read the new #complexitycat essay, where I argue that, treated as an empirical thesis about minds and machines, computation it outruns its warrant unless we either (i) add physical assumptions or (ii) reconceive what we are calling “computation.”/3 amahury.github.io/posts/what-com…
Now @gin_bianconi gives us an overview of network science, going from multilayer to higher-order networks. I truly enjoyed her lecture. I learned a lot of new interesting stuff which now I am willing to explore/review for #complexitycat! #NetSci2025
If you try to find any trace of such lectures on the Internet, you will realize that it is not possible to find them. In this #complexitycat archive I reviewed such a book and provided a link where they can be downloaded from my Drive account!/3 🐈⬛ amahury.github.io/posts/treasure…
In addition, I explore Hofmeyr's (F,A)-systems, an extension of Rosen's ideas that allows us to map relational biological models onto actual biochemical processes inside a cell. 3/3 #complexitycat
Check out this review from the #complexitycat archive, where I discuss the current state of progress in achieving the goals proposed by Turvey-Shaw, pointing out similar or relevant narratives (like enactivism) 20 years after their work was published./3 amahury.github.io/posts/review-t…
In this #complexitycat, I highlighted conceptual gaps that I consider important for the understanding life, many of them previously pointed out by @LuisMateusRocha. Maybe the main question is whether we can formally define life. More on this below👇/3 amahury.github.io/posts/review-l…

On April 19, 2024 Daniel Dennett passed away, one of the most influential philosophers of our time. This week we pay tribute to him by analyzing one of his essays. If you want to receive this and other updates we invite you to subscribe to the weekly #complexitycat newsletter!🗞️
Today in #complexitycat we commemorate the first mourning anniversary of Dan Dennett by reviewing one of his essays that, despite having been published more than 30 years ago, remains relevant in the face of the fervent wave of LLMs. Want to know more?👇🐈⬛ amahury.github.io/posts/review-t…
