Self-Organization
Summary

The emergence of life and pattern formation in physical systems are examples of self-organization. Despite the second law of thermodynamics, self-organization can increase complexity locally.

Complexity
Summary

The level of complexity in a bit string can be measured by the length of the shortest program that would generate it, according to Kolmogorov, Chaitin, Solomon. Measuring complexity is essential when distinguishing between life and non-life.

Perception
Summary

Our perception of complexity is subjective and dependent on the algorithms in our perception system. This concept raises questions about our ability to detect and interact with alien species, as they may perceive the universe differently due to their unique perception systems.
