Evolution

<< < (2/4) > >>

Botsareus:
(There Bau you is , in conflict with everyone as usual)

If we dont add complex mutations then a robot will never develope new unique stategys.

Ex is my "firstbot": It simply repros and shoots and goes forward all the time.

But If we make the mutation system too simple and ristrictive then it will never learn to turn or use poison or shell or ties or eyes or setaim etc.

For stuff like that to work effisintly robots need to evolve a new "If BLA then BLA"
Instantaneously.

and math stuff too: in one shot it comes up with somthing like

For I = 0 to 10 'this is not a one cycle loop ;)
 c(I) = a + (b^( b-a))^(1/I)
next

will be great  :)

Botsareus:
I like your ideas too guys , but we need the mutation to be evolutionary(your idea) and revolutionary(my idea) in the same time. Maybe its a good idea to combine the two.

Numsgil:
The point of evolution is that it comes up with stuff gradually in small steps.  I think you're just impatient, Bots.  I mean, there are some improvements that could allow for some more realistic mutations, but they only (theoretically) increase the frequency of useful mutations.

You're using the same arguments most Creatonists use against evolution.  Like this guy.  Don't underestimate the power of, or time period of, natural selection.

PurpleYouko:
Where did you manage to dig up this idiot from Num?

Then again it isn't that hard to find people who know nothing about the TOE but it is difficult to find someone who knows so little about jellyfish.

HMMM?
Jellyfish with complex eyes  :blink:
Jellyfish don't have any eyes!

 :D  PY  :D

Numsgil:
Ironically, this guy is the only one who's asked the question (exactly as I word it)

"why aren't all animals omnivores"

I think you can understand what I was hoping to come up with.  Such a dissapointment.
