计算与合作的共同演化：自创生博弈论
原标题：Tapes Together Strong: The Co-evolution of Computation and Cooperation
AI 摘要
该研究提出「自创生博弈论」（Autopoietic Game Theory），将社会互动、复制机制及其计算成本建模为内生且共同演化的过程。作者在随机初始化的 Z80 机器码环境中嵌入 STEAL 指令，把社会困境直接写入计算的物理机制中，发现资源稀缺时背叛会自我限制，演化出的程序会抑制偷窃行为，空间分布还能促进结构复杂性与任务表现。研究由 Google Paradigms of Intelligence、McGill 大学/Mila 及 Google DeepMind 合作完成，表明将智能体的计算能力与其可用能量耦合，可使合作成为构建可持续自组织系统的主导性支撑。

Tapes Together Strong: The Co-evolution of Computation and Cooperation Abstract How does cooperation evolve in complex agentic systems? Prior work in evolutionary game theory studies why individuals are incentivized to cooperate by isolating social interactions from the physical costs of behavior, while artificial life models traditionally study emergent self-replication without formalizing the dilemma between acquiring resources and preserving the shared energy needed to reproduce. In contrast,
