Physical Intelligence
The Physical Intelligence program will address its overall objective through a coordinated effort in three complementary domains: theory, implementation, and analysis. The objective of the theory domain is to develop and validate a physical formalism that unifies and expands ideas from diverse domains such as evolution, thermodynamics, information, and computation. The objective of the implementation domain is to demonstrate the first human-engineered open thermodynamic systems that spontaneously evolve nontrivial “intelligent” behavior under thermodynamic pressure from their environment. The objective of the analysis domain is to develop analytical tools to support the development of human-engineered physically intelligent systems and to understand physical intelligence in the natural world.
