Darwin's idea of world-as-a-learning-machine (which he himself did not fully understand, but which we can appreciate today thanks to disciplines like machine learning) is fairly fundamental in the domain of How-The-World-Works. Deleuze also talks about it, misunderstanding Darwin

Maybe you begin to see how revolutionary Deleuze was in thinking and understanding and developing an ontology around these concepts before machine learning was viable.

there is nothing revolutionary in his thought; it's mostly devolutionary. Darwin was far more revolutionary.

And Prigogine? Is he devolutionary as well?

which one of his claims you're thinking of? I am not a physicist

The entire theory of nonlinearity and self-organizing systems is Prigogine’s contribution, and Darwinism (as well as everything else) has had to reflect that. You’re retconning Darwin with much later ideas—which he no doubt intuited.

When talking about Darwinism (though not Darwin), I am justified in "retconning" because Darwinism is still the main "narrative" in biology to which things are "retconned"

Well, no shit. I think we’re talking past each other now.

I don’t think you understand Deleuze well enough to puncture his ontology, and I’m not sure where you got the idea that he updated Darwinism. Also, you don’t seem aware of where the advances in nonlinear thinking even derived from (hint: physics).
