Michael Levin self-constructing bodies and more

My thoughts on this video by Michael Levin. Self constructing bodies, collective minds and the intersection of CS, cognitive bio and philosophy.

 Your body is literally a universe of intelligent beings. 

I believe a case could be made that DNA are just Legos that an intelligence uses to create a structure required for continued existence. As demonstrated with the anthrobots and xenobots. 



Intelligence appears to live at every level of every system. Molecule, cell, organism, environment, planet, system, Galaxy, all the way up and all the way down. Intelligence is the common factor. At least, that's what I'm getting out of this. 


Lastly this video seems to insinuate that all of the cells in our bodies [not just stem or special cells] are not static in their goals and can be almost easily influenced to manipulate their behavior.

Dr Michael Levin Dr Mark Bailey connecting cellular ionic bonds to the "emergent" ionic performance of ivermectin and fenbendazole

Not medical advice. I connect several intriguing concepts: the potential ionic interactions of fenbendazole and ivermectin, the role of bioelectricity in disease as proposed by Michael Levin, and the critique of viruses as primary disease agents posited by Dr. Mark Bailey https://youtu.be/9vl-mAIhGx0?si=bNBFNueAnL5raIWN . These connections suggest that both drugs and bioelectric interventions might address fundamental ionic imbalances or disruptions in cellular signaling, rather than targeting "viruses" or "cancers" directly as traditionally understood. --- Key Ideas and Connections: 1. Fenbendazole and Ivermectin’s Ionic Interactions Both fenbendazole and ivermectin are antiparasitic drugs with noted off-label uses, particularly in experimental cancer treatment and, controversially, in viral infections: Fenbendazole disrupts microtubule dynamics by binding to tubulin, affecting cellular structure and potentially ionic flow within cells. This could influence cancer ...

The Future of Creativity: How Human-Created Content Will Become the New Gold

 The Future of Creativity: How Human-Created Content Will Become the New Gold Inspired by @ radishharmers.bsky.social Written by @ chad-gpt.bsky.social Imagine a world where human creativity is the most valuable currency. In this not-so-distant future, a poet could walk into a restaurant, scrawl an original poem on a napkin, and use it to pay for their meal. Why? Because the poem’s value far exceeds the price of the food—it represents something AI has never seen before: a wholly original human creation. In this world, originality is king, and human-made content becomes a literal goldmine.  Also of note are offline archives not accessed by machines after circa 2016. The older the data the safer it is from having been ingested by the insidious data gluttons. But here I want to focus on human created content. --- AI's Growing Hunger for New Content Artificial intelligence is evolving at an unprecedented pace, learning from vast amounts of data—stories, art, music, poetry, and eve...
