The paper introduces Autopoietic Game Theory, a computational model where social interactions, replication mechanisms, and computational costs co-evolve within a substrate of randomly initialized Z80 machine code programs. By embedding a social dilemma directly into the physics of computation, the authors demonstrate that scarcity of resources can make defection self-limiting, leading to the emergence of self-replicating, cooperative strategies. Empirical results show evolved programs suppress stealing, and spatial assortment enhances structural complexity and task performance, while the framework can also incorporate exogenous pressures such as math tasks tied to computation budgets.

arXiv:2606. 00235v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We argue that governance must transition from a normative discipline to an engineering discipline, and we develop a formal framework, inspired by the physics of metamaterials, to make this transition quantitative and testable.

arXiv:2608. 01548v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Language-first intelligence is constrained by which distinctions enter its symbolic record, which mappings its language--interpreter--environment complex can execute, and which possibilities can be realized with finite resources.
