From Worms To The Web
What makes intelligence possible? Is it something unique to the human brain, or does it
emerge whenever many simple parts work together in the right way?
In this Research on Tap conversation, VPR Kenneth Sewell will talk with Dr. Roger Mailler
about how intelligence can arise from interactions among simple systems, from the
tiny nervous system of a microscopic worm to vast networks of computers that help
manage global supply chains. Along the way, he’ll discuss how ideas from biology,
computer science, and artificial intelligence are reshaping our understanding of
learning, decision-making, and problem-solving.
Join us for an engaging look at one of science’s biggest questions: not just what
intelligence is, but how it emerges from connections and interactions all around us
