Yes, you just have variables, which are basically just labels, not careful and ground-truthed simulations of biochemical processes that develop from first principles.

If Erwin Schrödinger or other great math/logic modeler were here right now then you would be in big big trouble, for saying that.

Operational definitions are not a substitute for being able to make it happen on paper, then later on a computer screen. All else is just talk...


You're no Schrodinger.

Operational and theoretical definitions are a prerequisite for doing anything useful.

Modellers have to demonstrate that their algorithms are appropriate and that their math matches reality, otherwise it's no better that Snowflakes = Snowflakes + 1.  You haven't done that.

It still sounds like you are saying that Albert Einstein did not need to know that E=MC^2.

I have to get to my day job. Then I have to review the results of a long test of the ID Lab-6 that will meanwhile be running on the computer.

In an absolutely critical sense of the phrase, Einstein indeed did not need to know that E=MC^2.
If he knew it, how could he discover it?  How could he work out the math from prior principles and discoveries of physics?  How could he justify the truth of the claim to others if he did not understand how it was derived from physical phenomena and prior work?
You're an idiot.

But, of course, you don't even have an equation.  Nor do you have an algorithm.  Nor do you have the faintest clue of what phenomenon or phenomena you are working to 'explain'.
What you've produced is no more an explanation of 'intelligence', no matter how conceived, than Disney's Fantasia is an explanation of how to compose music.

"Tests" of your absurd "ID Lab" will reveal nothing other than whether the code runs or not.  The "ID Lab" has no relation to anything in reality, even if it is capable of producing 'results' that appear to match phenomena found in reality.  Remember?  We've been over this countless times.  Map/territory, model/reality.  Etc.
