How can we define complexity?
#8
RE: How can we define complexity?
I don't know much about cybernetics, but I know what you mean about biological complexity never being surpassed. I think that our biological systems in our body, are simply are a really complex mechanical system. There one and the same thing. Just to different degrees of complexity.

I've heard about experiments about somehow creating plants, or a gene that replicates itself, or something like that. I'm no scientist so this sounds a little stupid Huh Think about the way the human body heals itself. I've heard they're trying to create an organism that can do that. If they succeed, apply it to robots, and we have something more complex than humans. And yes, they're trying to do the same thing with the brain. A robot that can THINK and REGENERATE.

Like I said, I'm no expert, but it's something along those lines. I think it will happen eventually. Unless humans somehow die out from something. OR GOD COMES BACK!!!

But humans will keep advancing, keep improving, and eventually we'll get there, either in our lives, or somewhere down the track.
