But it is plausible that the algorithms shared by robust first computing (see: @livcomp https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7hwO8Q_TyCA … ) are shared by all biological systems ins other worlds.

Therefore, it is also plausible that general intelligence is achievable only through robust-first computing.

Indeed it's promising to explore how to create cognitive machinery based on robust first computing.

Every useful computational system involves both isolation from, but also interaction with, its physical implementation and environment. Traditional computing's hardware determinism (for the former) plus explicit input/output (for the latter) was a place to start, but not to end.

Are you thus implying that a robust-first platform will require fuzzier boundaries between its constituent components? If so, what are the characteristics of these boundaries that differentiate itself from the sharper boundaries of classical computers?

Not so much 'requires' as 'accepts'. Non-deterministic execution is a fact of life for truly large-scale computing. So the distinction between 'implementation' and 'environment' cannot be made completely crisp, and we'll all just have to roll with that.

Jean Tardy points at the difference between technical design (outside-in) and 'existential design' (inside-out). The former assumes a fully structured universe that imposes functional structure on a piece of raw material, the latter a seed that conquers the outside chaos.

Not sure I follow what a 'fully structured universe' is, but yeah, I begin and end with implementable systems. I get antsy playing with cognitive concepts unless I can at least somewhat explicitly imagine how I'd implement them.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DBZBQSBdcwY&t=100 …

When we engineer a system, we start with a deterministic substrate and a deterministic set of tools that we use to manipulate the substrate to add a function that interfaces with the existing ones. Living systems must carry all structure into the environment by themselves.

I engineer without determinism all day long.
