AI has made me increasingly believe that life is an emergent phenomenon.


A recent paper found DMSO—a simple lab reagent—can induce human stem cells to form blastoid-like structures.
Maybe embryos aren’t engineered step by step from a genetic blueprint. Maybe they emerge through self-organization once the right physicochemical conditions are in place.
Just as intelligence emerges in large language models.
