What other “similarly complex applications” are appropriate for the chemical implementations?
Ideally, the chemical implementations will be able to sustain “functions” or “behaviors” that only are only associated with living (e.g. cellular) systems today. Q: What complexity of implementation is necessary in the final phase of the program? A: The final implementation should be a practical demonstration of physical intelligence that is sufficiently compelling to an educated non-expert that he/she can easily recognize its significance. Q: Is there some “efficiency” or “efficacy” requirement for the performance of the implementations? A: No. However, it may be that efficient implementations evolve/adapt more successfully than inefficient ones. Q: Are ideas in information theory likely to be of importance in the program? A: Yes.
