Watch a simulation of artificial life and evolution

It's done by geologists, engineers, biologists, all sorts of different people modeling and simulation.

Starting simulation...

Let's see, first iteration, second, third, fourth.

Onset of modern digital computers. Here is one of the earliest simulations by Jim

Can we do that ourselves as well?

We have now 70 people in the team working on it.

Ninety. Simulated altitude, 60 feet.

When I run it 1000 times, I get a number like 0.672.

But there's an organization that has been able to find a way to learn when the first cases occur, and that is called GPHlN it's the Global Public Health Information Network.

They graze, they defend each other, they work together, they generate wealth.

Now suppose you had a means to turn back time and repeat history at will.

I hear it operating. I probably smell it operating. (Laughter)

Turns out we kind of do a reasonable job.

Then I return the final number over here.

You do not have to know how to code to create a behavior for Romo.

This is incredibly quick. This is happening in real time.

But my robot, STriDER, does not move like this.

So on the 1 hand, if you'll permit me,

Then comparing them with observations of real universe is an even, trickier yet.

Take a look at what brain activity might look like.

So how did that amorphous Big Bang turn into our complex cosmos?

And then, of course, the next year it comes roaring back.

Here is a simple mathematical simulation of this from N. Wright.

What, you're not doing anything?

A third thing we are looking at and very interested in is simulation.

There are any number of ways to figure out how much light arrives at each pixel to form an image.

So we're able to do the simulation, but this is two days on a desktop.

So that was the idea behind this.

And it's getting worse, because travel is getting so much better.

Here is just an illustrative simulation of what two different scenarios would predict in terms of large scale structure.

Pilot Forbes, you're off of the simulation.
