Working at the Cross of Evolution Theory, Statistical Physics, and Artificial Intelligence
Speaker: Dr. David Saakian (AANL)
Date & Time: 12/02/2025 15:00 Piotrovsky Auditorium
Key Topics:

• Why did life arise and evolve, the theory of growing complexity during evolution?

• How can we build limitless powerful AI with self-cognition?

• What is the origin of the success of societies?

Main Idea: The quantum world emerged first, followed by biological life and cognition. The most minimalistic way to organize them was to reproduce quantum phenomena (particle-wave duality, Berry phase, quantum anomalies) in a classical version.
Research Methods:

• Stochastic thermodynamics

• Multilevel selection

• Self-reference and entanglement

This seminar will cover:
The main equation of multilevel selection and its implications across various disciplines, from biology to IT technologies.
