How adaptive systems evolve and develop from primitive life forms to modern AI? 🌌
Join the Evolutionary Development of Universal Complexity (EDU) satellite at #CCS2026. We will be exploring the fundamental evo-devo dynamics driving #emergence and self-organization at all scales!
Prof. Kimmo Kaski is Professor of Computational Science at Aalto University & Associate Fellow at University of Oxford. A global pioneer in socio-economic systems, his research decodes human interaction patterns, opinion dynamics, and financial #networks through massive #datasets. 📊
Now published in open access! Your one-stop shop for the philosophy of language models. It's the spiritual descendant of our two-part preprint from 2024, fully updated. This should be particularly useful for anyone looking for an entry point into this rapidly growing field.
