Exploring Flow-Lenia Universes with a Curiosity-driven AI Scientist: Discovering Diverse Ecosystem Dynamics
We present a method for the automated discovery of system-level dynamics in Flow-Lenia$-$a continuous cellular automaton (CA) with mass conservation and parameter localization$-$using a curiosity-driven AI scientist. This method aims to uncover processes leading to self-organization of evolutionary and ecosystemic dynamics in CAs. We build on previous work which uses diversity search algorithms in Lenia to find self-organized individual patterns, and extend it to large environments that support…

Quantifying Student Success with Generative AI: A Monte Carlo Simulation Informed by Systematic Review
The exponential development of generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) technologies like ChatGPT has raised increasing curiosity about their use in higher education, specifically with respect to how students view them, make use of them, and the implications for learning outcomes. This paper employs a hybrid methodological approach involving a systematic literature review and simulation-based modeling to explore student perceptions of GenAI use in the context of higher education. A total of n…

Is it plausible that someone who did a psychology degree in the UK in the early 1980s but went on to work in a largely unrelated field has never heard of The Trolley Problem?
I ask only for a trivial reason and to satisfy my curiosity. Backstory is that a UK talk show host took a call in the last week where the caller said, "you know The Trolley Problem?" and he said no, but I am sure he did that only so the caller would explain in their own words for the purposes of the show…
