David Krakauer discusses the differences between Complementary Cognitive Artifacts, collective amplifiers of human reason, and Competive Cognitive Artifacts, collective analogs and competitors of human reason.
David Krakauer's research focuses around a series of fundamental questions.
1. How did intelligence evolve in the universe?
2. What is the relationship of intelligence to fundamental physical and biological laws, to include entropy production, the arrow of time, and natural selection?
3. How do collectives of adaptive agents generate novel ideas and come to predict and understand the worlds in which they live?
4. How do ideas evolve and how do they to encode natural and cultural life?
5. What is the relationship of organic to inorganic, cultural, and institutional mechanisms of computation and representation?
