Friston's free-energy principle is based on the premise that living systems are ergodic. Kauffman begins his new book with the premise that life is non-ergodic. Who is right? My money is on Kauffman on this one, but what do I know? A World Beyond Physics https://global.oup.com/academic/product/a-world-beyond-physics-9780190871338#.XNGVGw1PdIQ.twitter …

Maybe! My only point was that the comparison to Kauffman isn’t relevant, as the purportedly-ergodic things are very different in the two cases.

Hmmm... I think the comparison is relevant. FEP is supposed to unify life, brain, and mind, and is under assumption of ergodicity for all bio systems. Kauffman claims bio macromolecules on up to organisms and evolution are nonergodic. Am I missing something?
