In parallel, cellular automata and synthetic worlds show how memory and constraints can support functional behavior in minimal systems. Together, these findings are reshaping classical notions of agency, belief, and goal-directedness.

We use encoders-decoders to simulate elementary CA & identify a rich hierarchy of relationships not known before. We show that the number of elementary automata with unique dynamics can be reduced from 88 to 52!

Studying Encoder–Decoder Relation Between Cellular Automata to Uncover Their Computational Structure
Studying relationships between cellular automata can provide important insight into their structure and computational capacity. In this chapter, we study a notion called the encoder-decoder relation b...
