This is so fucking dumb it’s not even worth taking apart. The difference between digital and analog is ENTIRELY OUTSIDE the weirdass Turing shit in this non-argument. Living analog intelligence works by negative feedback, not by marking ones and zeros. Negative feedback is the crucial ingredient, not a bizarre theoretical limitation which doesn’t even connect with actual computer programming.
(I feel that the most important ingredient is life’s immersion in the electromagnetic field created by all other life, but that’s mostly unexplored and hard to quantify. Negative feedback within each organism is easy to illustrate and prove.)
