An experiment in whether personality is a vector. Six primitives, four genes, two children — and the question of what each one's structure predicts.
An experiment in whether personality is a vector. Six primitives, four genes, two children — and the question of what each one's structure predicts.
Each of six primitives — SAGE, WORM, APPLE, PLANT, RANGER, BRIDGE — is a kind of cognitive discipline a trading agent can lean on. A gene's genome ratio is how it allocates weight across the six. Four genes were spec'd with four different ratios. Each one was asked, on the same bars, to write what it saw, refuse what it wouldn't enter, and integrate what its fellow genes had said.
The first finding was register-coherence: each gene's WISDOM read differently, in shapes that traced to its genome. The questions that followed were structural — what does the basis predict at interpolated positions? Can two genes negotiate a child? Does the child carry its parents' ratios in its voice, in its behavior, in its first tick?
