  • Unconventional Selves - a Diverse Intelligence Perspective on Consciousness by Michael Levin

    Unconventional Selves - a Diverse Intelligence Perspective on Consciousness by Michael Levin
    2025/07/07
    "Unconventional selves in novel spaces, scales, and embodiments - a diverse intelligence perspective on a continuum of cognition and consciousness" is a ~1 hour 12 min talk I gave at a conference on consciousness (https://www.hardproblem.it/), as it relates to our work on diverse intelligence and unconventional cognition.

  • Nothing in Biology Makes Sense without Teleology

    Nothing in Biology Makes Sense without Teleology
    2025/07/05
    This is a deliberately provocative talk (~1 hour 20 minutes) I gave on teleology (a pretty taboo subject in a lot of the life sciences) delivered at Caltech. I try to go step by step and show the philosophical background of how I think about goal-directedness in physically embodied agents (cells and tissues etc.) and then the data - classic examples and new discoveries that this framework allowed us to make.

  • Endogenous Bioelectrical Networks: An Interface to Somatic Intelligence

    Endogenous Bioelectrical Networks: An Interface to Somatic Intelligence
    2025/06/24

    This is a ~55 min talk by Michael Levin "Endogenous Bioelectrical Networks: an interface to somatic intelligence for regenerative medicine", going over the state of the art in developmental bioelectricity in the context of collaborating with the cellular collective intelligence for applications in birth defects, regeneration, and cancer. It has some new material beyond what my recent talks on this topic have covered.
