To be alive means constantly making sense of a world that nourishes you but can also kill you. That's whether you're a bacterium or a whale.
Without sense making, a living being can't adjust its behavior to changing circumstances. Without sense making, death would come swiftly.
There is no life without cognition. #BasalCognition #ActiveInference
