Life defies entropy. A renegade creative force in a universe of indifference and dissipation. Surely no accident. Agency, purpose and intent. But from where? And why?

Regarding the last quote, perhaps the longing comes from within but the draw towards perfection from without…
Reinforcement Learning in Multiscale Biology: Bridging Complex Systems with Actionable Insights n solutions
Is that a paper? I can’t seem to find anything with that title.
Dr. Levin, my reference was a personal synthesis inspired by your collaborative article ‘From reinforcement learning to agency.’ Your work sparks deep intrigue and admiration in my journey.
Here’s a guy worthy of more than a mention Georg Cantor, he kinda validated Platonian forms:
‘Cantor shared with Spinoza the principle that the immanent reality suffices for the transeunt reality of an idea.’
….and I for one think he was on the right track.
Interesting! Can you point to anything to read on Cantor and Platonic Forms?
If you can get past the firewall on this on Cantor and Plato’s eidos, it might be interesting

The first quote by William James resonated deeply with me, for reasons you might recall. The others were also thought-provoking, of course. Thanks! /Paul
