Ep. 156: Algorithms won't get us to AGI | Johannes Jaeger

Dr. Johannes Jaeger is a systems scientist, evolutionary biologist, educator, and natural philosopher with an extremely transdisciplinary track record. His investigations, first as the head of an empirical lab, later as the director of an institute for the philosophy of biology, and then as a freelance investigator, have always focused on organisms as complex adaptive systems. He is currently leading a research project at the Dept of Philosophy of the University of Vienna called “Pushing the Boundaries,” which concerns the differences between machines and organisms, and the importance of this difference for evolution. He is associate faculty at the Complexity Science Hub (CSH) Vienna, and a scholar at the Ronin Institute. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
