		sunscream89 5 months ago \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: Is Life a Form of Computation? No way! Computation is vectors, vectors are information, intelligence is the determinant resolve of information. That all fits. Life is something else. Further, it may be more honest to say life is a technology of consciousness (inflection upon the potential of existential being) rather than the other way around. Life is something different than computation, however computation may shape the technology of life.
