B014/S02 from that extended list is also quite interesting. It looks so organic. And this glider totally looks like a butterfly:

I think that might be due to the fact that B0 rulesets seem to be really good at creating replicators . Kumar's model seems to mainly be identifying automata that are extremely dynamic, and replicators definitely help with that. I also noticed there are few still lifes in the automata picked by the ...

Thanks! I started a new thread here: https://conwaylife.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=237258.

Akarsh Kumar at MIT published an interesting paper last year where he used a vision-language foundation model to find the most open-ended artificial life simulations across all possible Life-like cellular automata (all 262,144 possible B/S rulesets). Pretty much everything that would be of interest ...

Hello. I'm a long-time lurker, but would like to request that my account, Nosferattus, be granted Trusted status.

I'm interested in exploring and documenting some of the Life-like automata discovered by Kumar et al. I'm happy to restrict this to my userspace unless there is community interest ...
