Embodied Intelligence: Sea Stars and the Brainless Way to Solve Problems


Listen Later

Debunking the brain-centric view of intelligence, this episode dives into how sea stars coordinate movement without a central brain. With a nerve ring, radial cords, and hydraulic tube feet, they use winner-take-all dynamics and embodied intelligence to hunt, evade, and migrate. We explore what their body-based problem solving means for robotics, AI, and our understanding of intelligent systems.
