Biology might not be quantum, but its math is quantumlike

    At some point we will need to get rid of the artificial boundaries of physics, chemistry and biology. It made sense before when we could only look at things in their locality, but as we improve and see things at better and better resolution having a division will become meaningless.

      They are different areas (and to some extent levels of abstraction). I think the distinction would remain relevant even if we had a perfect theory of everything and an exact mapping between every layer and concept.

      The common link is math? The other day I saw in HN that do we need mathematicians in the future, as AI is solving every equations? But where is classical AI in terms of solving quantum equations?
