Neural Cellular Automata Paper Accepted For Oral At ALifeConf 2026

Natural evolution's open-endedness leads to beautiful, complex emergent structures and self-organizing behavior 🌱✨. Replicating this in silico is famously hard 💻. Our paper points to a promising direction by evolving populations of competing neural cellular automata with lifelike behavior 🧬🤖 #Isambard
