Q: shortest zerobot reproduction time

<< < (3/4) > >>

EricL:
Hell, I'd be happy to see ANY vision related DNA being conserved, even something like

*.eye5 dec


Peter:

--- Quote from: EricL ---In a word, no.  No one to my knowledge has ever evolved anything as complex as a bot that can hunt or see, starting from a zerobot.  There is even some uncertainty as to wether anyone has ever evolved a zerobot that deliberatly utilizes conditional logic to make a decision.   Trafalger as put in for the Conditional Logic prize and I have been too lazy to review his entry.  My bad.   He gets the prize no matter what, I just need to find an hour or two to rub together to walk his entry.

--- Quote from: ikke ---Out of curiosity: what is the shortest time anyone has ever evolved a selfreplication from a zero bot?
At the first attempt I had 100 new bots after 150 k cycles. After that poor dynamic cost set up killed them all  
Now (my second attempt) I am at 1.7 m cycles and nothing

If you want to get a replicator fast, you can get one in a few minutes, maybe a few thousend cycles. All you have to do is put the point mutation at 1. Problem is that  most replicators forget replicating as soon as they learned. But there will come new bots anytime that way.

Ah good, thanks. Well if that is the smartest zerobot around, evolution really came far.

MysticalDumpling:
The shortest time ever was 30sec  8). I used 10,000 random numbers from -32000 to 32000. It had a huge lag, however...  stable repro usually occurs around 3-7h, the first bots to reproduce often kill themselves from sheer fertility... Figures.
