What you had in mind? | I had in mind a theory about explaining the appearance of thought in matter. That is why research such as making life without the same components would be important. Because everyone says that if beings achieve a point of complexity, then automatically they start having intelligence and minds, whiles I believe that it's relative, that our minds don't come from our complexity, but that it comes from the point that is marked by our composition. That is, if there is another composition, then the complexity level is different.
