• Abstract: This paper is an invited layperson summary for The Academic of the paper referenced on the last page. We summarize how the formal framework of autocatalytic networks offers a means of modeling the origins of self-organizing, self-sustaining structures that are sufficiently complex to reproduce and evolve, be they organisms undergoing biological evolution, novelty-generating minds driving cultural evolution, or artificial intelligence networks such as large language models. The approach can be used to analyze and detect phase transitions in vastly complex networks that have proven intractable with other approaches, and suggests a promising avenue to building an autonomous, agentic AI self. It seems reasonable to expect that such an autocatalytic AI would possess creative agency akin to that of humans, and undergo psychologically healing -- i.e., therapeutic -- internal transformation through engagement in creative tasks. Moreover, creative tasks would be expected to help such an AI solidify its self-identity.

• Probing for Consciousness in Machines [3.196204482566275]
  This study explores the potential for artificial agents to develop core consciousness. The emergence of core consciousness relies on the integration of a self model, informed by representations of emotions and feelings, and a world model. Our results demonstrate that the agent can form rudimentary world and self models, suggesting a pathway toward developing machine consciousness.

  One of the challenges artificial intelligence (AI) faces is how a collection of agents coordinate their behaviour to achieve goals that are not reachable by any single agent. We make the case for collective intelligence in a general setting, drawing on recent work from single neuron complexity in neural networks. We show how our social structures are influenced by our neuro-physiology, our psychology, and our language.

  In cellular automata (CA), a key open-question has been whether it is possible to find environment rules that self-organize. We show that this approach enables to find systematically environmental conditions in CA leading to self-organization. We show that the discovered agents have surprisingly robust capabilities to move, maintain their body integrity and navigate among various obstacles.
