A must-watch video summarizing the work of Michael Levin: Highlights: - Intelligence can be found on much lower levels of organization than what we typically believe. - We can use tools from cognitive science and psychology to interact with tissues and even individual cells. For example, even relatively simple chemical networks can exhibit pavlovian conditioning. - Single-cell organisms with 100% human DNA. - Regrowing limbs. - Conscious exploration of the morphospace (the space of possible body-forms). - Platonic space might be real after all.
