    How do we determine what the minimal level of what qualifies for concepts such as life / consciousness / intelligence? I'm sorry if that question is a little difficult.

    We can try putting random pieces of DNA floating around in a swamp and see if they self-replicate.

    I dunno

    It is difficult because nobody knows

    Life:

    Consciousness:
    https://journals.plos.org/ploscompbi...l.pcbi.1003588
    Intelligence [generalized]:
    http://hology.org/

    A self-processing and self-configuring language [SCSPL, Intelligence] substantiated by a minimally-irreducible conceptual system [MICS, Consciousness] that metabolizes, repairs, and replicates [M,R-Diagrams, Life].

    Ultimately, determining what qualifies is a philosophical question, not a scientific one.

    Yes, I think it's easy to make the case that the language faculty and verbal memory set the context for actions.

    Word orders generally fall into some permutation of subject-verb-object agreement. This can be adapted for observations, instructions, sequencing visual associations, and all the other stuff you'd expect from a speech stream coordinating inter-hemispheric transfers in the human brain.

    But words themselves are not matters of fact - they're merely substitute for pictures.
