CLINE was established to encourage and facilitate the scientific exploration of the intersection of computation, language, information, complexity, and intelligence as they are influenced by, and influence, the process of evolution. Of particular interest to this group is the development of self-evolving systems. The assumption is that apex systems evolve toward greater and greater complexity-handling capacity. Some call this "artificial intelligence," but we have trouble with the term as it …
I'm here at Naomi's Coffee in beautiful Morgan Hill, drinking my Americano. On a casual search on my iPhone yellow pages app, within a 10-mile radius, I find over 60 churches and about 10 practitioners of alternative medicine. Sheesh!
