The order that emerges in enormous, randomly assembled, interlinked networks of binary variables is almost certainly merely the harbinger of similar emergent order in whole varieties of complex systems. |

Network solutions are ‘Bottom Up’ solutions; they come within the system, not from outside the system, as in ‘Top Down’ solutions, which are provided by a ‘Superior Intelligence’. Consider this to be parallel to the following: | Network solutions are ‘Bottom Up’ solutions; they come within the system, not from outside the system, as in ‘Top Down’ solutions, which are provided by a ‘Superior Intelligence’.
