Neil deGrasse Tyson & David Krakauer: How Complexity Creates Intelligence

From StarTalk.

Neil deGrasse Tyson and guest David Krakauer unpack the concept of emergence—how simple parts give rise to complex behaviors and new rules. From gases forming fluids to bird flocks, termite mounds, and even AI, they explore when systems deserve to be called “emergent,” why new languages of description are needed, and how true intelligence involves problem-solving, not memorization.
