      Wolfram's physics project (@stephen_wolfram) has a peculiar conjecture that reducible computation emerges out of irreducible computation. Biological cognition perhaps is based on analogous principles. The complexity of cells lead to the behavior of brains.

      If we assume that the computation of neurons or a collection of neurons are irreducible, then that implies a limitation of the reductionist approach of many neuroscience research.

      However, vertebrate brains aren't uniform but are constructed out of distinct parts with specific functions. These parts (i.e. cortex, thalamus, hippocampus, cerebellum) work in cooperation with each other. Thus there is some behavioral predictability in each.

      The developmental program of the brain develops each brain part in isolation and then each part learns to cooperate with other parts of the brain and the body. Dissipation, autocatalysis, homeostasis, and learning are the fundamental processes for biological development.

      The instruction set was refined over billions of years of evolution is reused as organisms become more complex. It is a mistake to assume that a new instruction set arose only for complex creatures like mammals or humans.

      Give the right developmental program, non-vertebrates like octopuses might conceivably evolve into intelligence able to create technologies like us. Humans just happen to evolve with the right kind of circumstances, but the original instructions have always been present.

      In fact, humans evolved to who we are because of limitations in our own biology and not because of strengths. Our larger brains and vocal capability is a consequence of a gene that weakened our jaws. Our need for socialization is due to individually inferior physical abilities.

      Humans are intelligent because humans are relatively less physically superior than other creatures in the environment. We conquered the world because our intelligence allowed us to collectively organize ourselves.

      It's a bit more ominous than that. We also conquered the world because our collective action drove out cultures that would fundamentally be more in balance with nature, humans that were fundamentally stronger and healthier and likely smarter, like the hunter gathers, neanderthals

      My argument is that collective behavior trumped individual physical prowess. Homo sapiens bested the other humanoids on the planet.

      Not sure this is true. By the numbers, yes, but people are obviously holding back. By the numbers argument you could say that chickens are a more successful species than humans. Otherwise, we would not have such an idiot as a "leader" of the free world.

          Right now a virus, from a bat and a pangolin, plus our efforts for centralised information control, have decimated the world economy. It is probably our hunter-gatherer blood kicking in right now - after all there was still intermarriage between neanderthals and mitochondrial eve

          To this day, Mongolia has 2 people per square km. In Temujin's day, it was one of the most sparsely populated places on the planet -- but connected to the steppe, a central land. From this wilderness, a horde emerged, enough to overcome everything but itself.pic.twitter.com/MnkvQKMrmM
