✨ I'm excited to share our joint work with Google Research titled “Mesh Neural Cellular Automata” appearing in SIGGRAPH 2024. MeshNCA can directly synthesize dynamic textures on 3D meshes in real time, without UV maps. meshnca.github.io (1/n) Xu Yitao Alex Mordvintsev Eyvind Niklasson

🚀 (1/8) Excited to share our ALife 2024 paper on studying the spatio-temporal continuity of Neural Cellular Automata (NCA). We propose NoiseNCA and show that it learns dynamics that correspond to PDEs. This enables many cool features (shown in the thread) noisenca.github.io

"JAX for ALife" tutorial at ALIFE Conference 2025 (with Ettore Randazzo) will start very soon, please come to Aud 4 on 4/F!

❤️

Super fun conversation with Sean about life, evolution, and everything :)

Excited to share something new very soon. Stay tuned for October!

i'm often asked why this is my favorite book, and i've always struggled to answer in concrete terms. i finally have an answer: this book is a force multiplier for personal agency if you read it properly, you will understand the world is much more malleable than you thought, and

a bit more than a week left until the submission deadline for the Evoself workshop at Gecco! if you're working on anything at the intersection of self-organisation (emergent or designed) and evolution, submit your work soon and come join us in Málaga in July!

The code for "Differentiable Logic Cellular Automata" is now live 🚀. Check it out: google-research.github.io/self-organisin…

In our recent piece for Noema Magazine, my colleague James Manyika and I share five fundamental and interconnected paradigm shifts in our understanding of intelligence. Over the coming days, I’ll dive into each. First, natural computation.

We will be hosting an exhibition of Antikythera's work and some additional surprises in Venice next month. Hope to see you. The Monolith features work by Antikythera, Peter Galison, Blaise Agüera y Arcas, Metahaven, Gaspar Begus, Stewart Smith, Robert Pietrusko, Alexander

I just arrived in Singapore for ICLR, where I will present: - OMNI-EPIC poster on Fri 25 Apr 15:00-17:30 - CAX poster on Sat 26 Apr 10:00-12:30 I am super happy that CAX got accepted at ICLR 2025 as an oral presentation. 🤩 If you are interested in open-endedness/artificial

🚀 New preprint! ARC-NCA shows how Neural Cellular Automata —incl. memory-rich EngramNCA—crack tasks from the ARC-AGI benchmark, hitting GPT-4.5-level accuracy at a fraction of the cost. 🌱🤖 Web: etimush.github.io/ARC_NCA/ Preprint: arxiv.org/abs/2505.08778 #NeuroAI #AGI #CA #ALIFE
