Основные понятия
The author argues that Assembly Theory is a weak version of algorithmic complexity based on LZ compression, lacking in logical consistency and empirical evidence.
Аннотация
The content critically examines Assembly Theory, highlighting its limitations and inaccuracies. It questions the theory's ability to explain selection or evolution beyond known connections. The analysis reveals how Assembly Theory is closely related to algorithmic complexity but falls short in providing meaningful insights.
