[C. Stefan @eworks77]

Symbols Framework summary:
All slight a bit above: Symboliad, broad rules.
Slight a bit below "all is a wave" but generativity plateaus.
Slight a bit above Ruliad: in-between / rules above.
Slight besides linearity / autoregression.
Slightly through nothing.
Thread below. 1/13+1

@DrTomFroese Model to include I guess that "one does not need be the mover," environment as a co-mover. A Symbol 2.0 accounts for a non-locality. What's needed more than brain interacting (social delegation) and the structural coupling modeling (FEP)? https://t.co/ZPhAnU2RRk

@BradleyKellard Nice, I think that in the fragility the cause is structural. How to see that in a continuum: C. Stefan (2026) The Limits of Causality: One Bit And The Reminder. @taleb https://t.co/YAc5P34BAZ

[C. Stefan @eworks77]

"mind not in the brain" got its backing through philosophy, here Wittgenstein/Whitehead and bits at boundary indeed https://t.co/FJWJlowmDj

[Sheila Macrine, Ph.D. @MacrinePhD]

What if "thinking" isn't just happening inside your head—or even just inside living organisms?
In a major new preprint, Chris Fields and Michael Levin use basic physics and the Free Energy Principle to show that cognitive offloading is a universal necessity. Every time-persistent system, from developing cells to Large Language Models, relies on its environment to do the heavy computational lifting.
By treating the environment as an active participant in problem-solving rather than a passive backdrop, they open up wild new frameworks for evolutionary biology, regenerative medicine, and next-gen AI engineering.

@haanzon @MacrinePhD may work indeed across scales, by delegation and "enactity" of substrates https://t.co/mvkxYwDIHZ

[C. Stefan @eworks77]

@MacrinePhD Indeed, how this may work in biology, LUCA and AI, if we think as a law by which things are delegated: https://t.co/Eb3pHWhhKd

[C. Stefan @eworks77]

This is something indeed, I think it is a rough time ahead for science as "positive" and non-counterfactual. This hinge I used in the paper Open Tensoriality and The Structural Law In Biology. https://t.co/PwmvLLjAJe

[φ @QuanticASI]

you haven't learned enough until you're scared of your own thoughts

[C. Stefan @eworks77]

How it connects within cognition and biology? When looking at the history of mathematics it has become clearer what it is (Puzzlement from von Neumann to Lakatos, to Solomon Marcus). https://t.co/Eb3pHWhhKd

[Mathematica @mathemetica]

“What exactly is mathematics? Many have tried but nobody has really succeeded in defining mathematics; it is always something else. Roughly speaking, people know that it deals with numbers, figures, with relations, operations, and that its formal procedures involving axioms, proofs, lemmas, theorems have not changed since the time of Archimedes.”

— Stan Ulam

[C. Stefan @eworks77]

@parikupa @drmichaellevin indeed, meaning not owned by either, explaining it within the Symbols Framework how this line is blurred. The Markov Blanket terminology I think has its limits, that's why proposing the Symbols 2.0 construction, and the Symboliad as the "driver". https://t.co/Wlwy6HUbWU

[C. Stefan @eworks77]

@drmichaellevin good! This fits a general CCEP and the Structural Law by "wherever life-matter requires coordinated energy transformation across adjacent units, the between acquires structure" this is realized by enactment of Symbols2.0/Symboliad as "driver". https://t.co/lVrRiwnifs

[C. Stefan @eworks77]

@ziv_ravid Anthropic has no clue yet. The J space is what it enacts (GWT requires update) aka. Symboliad through superposition and generativity. Explore: C. Stefan (2024) Symbols Framework and (2026) An Agnostic Structural Law. @AnthropicAI https://t.co/rZg2NeCMWz

[C. Stefan @eworks77]

@drmichaellevin @LPiolopez @BenjaminLy61243 Good Symboliad illustration! Biology can be treated in Open Tensoriality terms and in turn aligning it with mathematics as cognitive as well as reality anchor. Along a continuum of the law within biology some interpretations and predictions proposed https://t.co/Eb3pHWhhKd

[C. Stefan @eworks77]

@grok @GraySpaceFarms @drmichaellevin @jjfarrimond interesting take, conceptually ok, within hysteresis and a generativity way (path, path dependence eg. Symbols2.0/Symboliad "veil"). This is why less goals, and seeing An Agnostic Structural Law and "enactity" for a lingua franca through the Open Tensoriality Programme proposed.

[C. Stefan @eworks77]

@itspoidaman hahaha, all we do is a form of art!

[C. Stefan @eworks77]

@PAHoyeck @Coverage_Critic @drmichaellevin A lingua franca: fractal without fractal identity, those math bits (even if not provable real (makes no difference)) or may change) are what makes an Open Tensoriality standing. By that we have Cognition-Cosmology Equivalence as a modality rather Objects. https://t.co/p051GL23JF

[C. Stefan @eworks77]

@vaggelask @ebarenholtz good! Symbols Framework and Open Tensoriality explains: it's not just mind, but within a continuum it's status quo. Mind is just a same mechanism, think LTM/ STM as delegation of patterns. "The Matrix" as basically the law: C. Stefan (2026) An Agnostic Structural Law.

[C. Stefan @eworks77]

@TOEwithCurt good, as a "rolling snowball" mechanism in a continuum: C. Stefan (2026) An Agnostic Structural Law
works in a Cognition-Cosmology Equivalence way (thus for 5 y.o. too my friend). https://t.co/dcQWcbEGbs

[C. Stefan @eworks77]

@EricTopol @NatureMedicine Curious though, are there studies from the reverse side of the prompting? A doctor is ready when he knows -with AI, even more about a subject matter by mastering the technique of learning with it. Not how much can it not do anything anymore by using it.

[C. Stefan @eworks77]

@AndrewCritchPhD a lingua franca from philosophy physics and AI down to agency (bit different from goals and some FEP aspects): C. Stefan: Open Tensoriality The Physics of agency, sentience and the continuum, one can explore: https://t.co/BiIjwgJl2G

[C. Stefan @eworks77]

@DrTomFroese Basically exactly there where there is no efficient causality (eg. AI and "dark room", Visual Index theory...) That event of enactment in which neither the "observer" nor the "outcome" is separable as a prior cause. There are the new Symbols. https://t.co/YAc5P34BAZ

@skdh Roger Krauss or Penrose?
