Started reading, want to get initial thoughts down before they escape me. Will return when I am done
Representation: An agent, or an agent’s behaviour, is a script. I don’t know if that’s helpful or meaningful.
Interfaces: Real, in-universe agents have hardware on which they operate. I’d say they have “sensors and actuators”, but that’s tautologous to “inputs and outputs”.
Embedding: In biological systems, the script is encoded directly in the structure of the wetware. The hardware / software dichotomy has more separation, but I think I’m probably misunderstanding this.
